It is a joy to welcome Tim Krol back to CitF and the Carmel Bach Festival.

This is Tim’s 16th season with the Bach Festival. His repertoire spans from early music to modern classical, and everything in between. From 1991-2000, Tim performed and toured worldwide with Chanticleer, America’s premier a cappella vocal ensemble. He can be heard on thirteen Chanticleer recordings, including the Grammy Award-winning “Colors of Love.” As a Bach specialist, he has performed many of Bach’s Cantatas, Masses and Passions throughout the United States; including of course, here in Carmel.

Most recently, Tim embarked on a new project to resurrect the overlooked song gems of Robert Franz, a 19th century German composer whose friends included Wagner, Liszt, Mendelssohn and Robert and Clara Schumann.

You can learn more about that at TimKrol.com

Bob and I are making a trip to northern Europe and Norway, July 20 to Aug. 10, and will be away from CitF for the next four Sundays. In my absence Hillet Botha and Cathryn Wilkinson will each take two Sundays. Please give them your warmest welcome and appreciation.

Melinda’s remarks from July 7 reprinted by request:                                                                                                                                                                                
     Thank you, Ken, and thank you, all of you, for letting me speak. This is the first time I’ve spoken to you about music in the 24 years I’ve been here, so I really had to search my mind to think what I would say to you. I think my service here has been in the power of music’s ability as a language beyond words that goes straight to our hearts. We walk around, incapsulated egos in our lives, we are alone, alienated.  We’re thinking our own thoughts and obsessed with ourselves most of the time. Music has an ability to dissolve that and save us from our selfishness and our narcissism and to connect us to something much greater and beautiful, the beauty of life, the beauty of the human imagination and of creation.
     But, “Talking about music is like dancing about architecture”, and that’s not mine, that’s a quote. Talking about music is a very slippery thing. Stravinsky says that  “Music is simply organized sound.”  Mozart and Debussy say that “Music is the silence between the notes.”  Don McLean says “If I could say the things I feel it wouldn’t be the same, some things are not spoken of, some things have no name.”
     But we feel them profoundly, deeply, we feel the beauty and we feel the connection between us.
