Join other music lovers on Thursday, May 11th at 6pm, at the Turquoise Raven Gallery in Cortez for a lively concert by the Windswept Trio.
.
Windswept consists of three principal players from the San Juan Symphony – Rochelle Mann (flute), Rebecca Ray (oboe), and Denise Turner (bassoon) who enjoyed a week-long residency at Willowtail Springs in March to prepare music for this concert. The group first performed together in 2019 as part of the Third Avenue Arts Recital Series in Durango, the Southwest Recital Series in Santa Fe, and the East Mountain Music for the Soul Series in Edgewood, New Mexico. When the Covid 19 pandemic forced the cancellation of multiple performances, Windswept recorded a virtual concert for the 3AA Concerts on the Couch series. Rochelle, Rebecca, and Denise are thrilled to be scheduled to play four live concerts this weekend.
Reservations are needed: peggy@willowtail.org or 970-560-0333. $5 admission fee supports Willowtail's Residency Scholarship programs.
Willowtail Springs is located on Diné Bí Kéyah, traditional Navajo land, near the escarpment of the northern sacred mountain, Dibé Ntsaa. It is also part of the open range of the Ute people, now living on the Ute Mountain Ute and Southern Ute Tribal Allotment reservations to the southwest and southeast. Additionally, Mesa Verde and the surrounding lands in Montezuma County and the Four Corners Region were occupied by the Ancestral Puebloan People a thousand years ago. We honor the past, present, and future indigenous people residing in this region and recognize them as long standing stewards of this land, amplifying our work by their historical presence and their living contributions to land preservation efforts across this region.
