![]() ![]() There are also some constraints on what we can do, such as the budget for hiring musicians, but within these constrains, there’s a treasure trove of chamber music that’s out there.”Īs for the 2023 Cactus Pear, Sykes has it all figured out already. The pieces that I pick have to have a feeling of connection between them, but within that connection, I like them to be as varied as possible. I suppose, you could say that I look for unity and variety. It’s important to schedule compositions by women, by Latin composers, Black composers, and it’s also important to include a variety of styles and periods. But it’s good to combine them with less-known compositions, possibly by underrepresented composers. Those pieces can serve as anchors for a program. It is, of course, important to play traditional masterpieces, and we should continue to do that. “That’s one of my basic principles: don’t make it too long! (laughs) I am also very committed to including music that is less familiar. “There’s so much great music, it’s easy to over-program,” he said. Sant’Ambrogio moved to Reno a number of years ago to teach at the university there.Īs an experienced festival director, Sykes already has insights and principles that he follows while choosing programming. And he would soon be going to Reno to play in another Sant’ Ambrogio initiative, a series of concerts called Chamber Music Reno. They also went on two tours of Chile, sponsored by the State Department, and a tour of Mexico. Sant’Ambrogio and Sykes met years ago when she was invited to perform at his festival in Madison where she became a regular guest artist. ![]() I love Renee (CPMF’s executive director), I love Stephanie, and I have a tremendous number of connections here in San Antonio.

When the board asked if I would be interested in this role, I didn’t have to think about it. So, I have a long history with Cactus Pear and I have loved what Stephanie has done with the festival. I had started a festival in Wisconsin five years prior to that, so I was able to give Stephanie a lot of assistance as she was setting a chamber music festival here, in San Antonio. I was here in San Antonio for the very first season of Cactus Pear.
