SUMMARY:Outer Cape Chamber Music Festival // Season Opener: Inner Voices
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open at 1:30pm\, Concert begins at 2pm | Advanced Tickets: $30 | Door Tickets: $35 | $15 for students and free for kids under 10 at the door\n\n\n\nPlease note: this concert was originally scheduled for Monday\, June 22 at 6:30pm. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nToday’s program pairs two masterworks of the clarinet quintet repertoire.\n\n\n\nBrahms’s autumnal Op. 115\, composed in 1891 after a long retreat from public composition and inspired by clarinetist Richard Mühlfeld\, and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s Op. 10\, was written just four years later by a young composer steeped in late-Victorian elegance but possessed of a uniquely warm\, folk-inflected lyricism. Where Brahms distills German Romanticism to its reflective essence — hushed yearning themes\, tender slow movements\, and a quietly resolved finale — Coleridge-Taylor answers with ardent\, songlike writing that is formally assured yet emotionally generous\, blossoming from poised opening themes to a hopeful\, affirmative close. Though separated by nationality and experience\, both composers treat the clarinet as a human narrator in intimate dialogue with the string quartet\, and together these two quintets chart a shared chamber ideal: music that speaks close and true. \n\n\n\nProgram: \n\n\n\nSamuel-Coleridge Taylor\, Clarinet Quintet (1906) \n\n\n\nBrahms Clarinet Quintet (1891) \n\n\n\nArtists: \n\n\n\nSangwon Lee\, clarinetGrant Houston and Yoonhee Lee\, violins\,Anna Griffis\, violaJoseph Gotoff\, cello \n\n\n\nThe Outer Cape Chamber Music Festival at PAAM brings world-class chamber music to Provincetown through an intimate concert series that uniquely integrates with the museum’s visual art exhibitions. Led by cellist Joseph Gotoff\, the series features concerts over two weeks in early summer\, performed by world-class musicians with ties to Cape Cod. Each concert is specifically curated to converse with the art on display at the museum.

SUMMARY:Outer Cape Chamber Music Festival // Concert 2: Innovation and Mastery
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open at 6pm\, Concert begins at 6:30 | Advanced Tickets: $30 | Door Tickets: $35 | $15 for students and free for kids under 10 at the door\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTonight’s program traces a historical arc through three transformations of the clarinet trio: from Bruch’s twilight Romanticism to Khachaturian’s exotic modernism to LeFanu’s contemporary lyricism.\n\n\n\nMax Bruch composed his Eight Pieces\, Op. 83\, in 1909 in his seventies for his son\, a clarinetist\, offering the aging Romantic a final moment of lyrical reflection. These pieces favor rich\, mellow instrumental hues and autumnal maturity of expression\, with melancholy opening themes that resolve into quiet nobility—a farewell to a musical language Bruch had perfected across a lifetime. Aram Khachaturian’s Trio\, composed in 1932 while still a student at the Moscow Conservatory\, answers with a younger voice steeped in a different inheritance: a blend of classical form with exotic folk elements that speaks of Eastern Eurasian traditions. Where Bruch distills\, Khachaturian ornaments—his rhapsodic first movement unfolds through gypsy-like improvisations\, and his finale spirals through variations on Uzbek folk melody. \n\n\n\nNearly sixty years on\, Nicola LeFanu’s Lullaby for clarinet and piano and Nocturne for cello and piano (1988) return to intimacy and restraint. Written in an era that has absorbed both her predecessors\, these miniatures speak quietly but assuredly: music that honors the clarinet and cello as human voices in conversation\, yet in a contemporary idiom stripped to essentials. Together\, these three works chart a shared chamber ideal—the belief that truth lives in melody\, color\, and close musical dialogue. \n\n\n\nProgram: \n\n\n\nNino Rota\, Trio for Clarinet\, Cello and Piano (1973) \n\n\n\nNicola LeFanu\, Nocturne for cello and piano and Lullaby for clarinet and piano (1988) \n\n\n\nMax Bruch\, Pieces for Clarinet\, Cello and Piano\, Op. 83 \n\n\n\nArtists: \n\n\n\nSangwon Lee\, clarinet \n\n\n\nJoseph Gotoff\, cello \n\n\n\nYundu Wang\, piano \n\n\n\nThe Outer Cape Chamber Music Festival at PAAM brings world-class chamber music to Provincetown through an intimate concert series that uniquely integrates with the museum’s visual art exhibitions. Led by cellist Joseph Gotoff\, the series features concerts over two weeks in early summer\, performed by world-class musicians with ties to Cape Cod.

SUMMARY:Fredi Schiff Levin Lecture // Fritz Horstman
DESCRIPTION:Artist and teacher Fritz Horstman discusses his studio practice and his book\,  Interacting with Color: A Practical Guide to Josef Albers’s Color Experiments in this Fredi Schiff Levin Lecture.\n\n\n\nArtist\, educator\, curator\, and author Fritz Horstman’s lecture will be two-faceted. He will cover both his new book\, which is a companion to Josef Albers’s beautiful and canonical\, though sometimes opaque\, Interaction of Color\, first published in 1963\, and some of his own artwork\, which is deeply informed by working so closely with the work of Anni and Josef Albers. Horstman’s book focuses on 8 essential experiments in Albers’s text\, providing more images\, step-by-step explanations\, new resources\, and anecdotes from Albers’s classes and from his own. The lecture will transition to his studio practice\, where he’ll share images of his Folded Cyanotypes and Folded Palladiums\, made by folding photo-sensitive paper\, as well as images of several new sculptures and videos in which he describes glacial valleys with a wide range of materials and processes. The lecture will conclude with images of what’s happening in his studio this summer. \n\n\n\nIncluded with $15 Museum admission\, free for PAAM members. \n\n\n\nTHE FREDI SCHIFF LEVIN LECTURE SERIES\n\n\n\nThe Fredi Schiff Levin Lecture Series welcomes artists\, art historians\, curators\, and authors to speak at PAAM during the summer\, both in conjunction with exhibitions and as independent scholars. \n\n\n\nThe series was established in honor of artist Fredi Schiff Levin\, an active member of Provincetown’s arts community from the 1960s until her passing in 2002. We extend our deepest gratitude to The Levin Family\, who graciously sponsors this series. \n\n\n\nWatch all previous lectures our YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:Book Signing with Debra Lennard // "Marcia Marcus: I Paint What I Like"
DESCRIPTION:Published on the occasion of a major new career retrospective\, Marcia Marcus: I Paint What I Like provides a much-needed\, extensive monographic exploration of a strikingly original artist.\n\n\n\nHeadstrong and wry\, Marcia Marcus (1928–2025) was a fiercely original artist whose work challenges typical understanding of post-war American art. Rejecting mainstream abstraction\, Marcus spent five decades painting what compelled her: languorous male nudes\, parenthood\, great style—subjects her peers rarely explored—all rendered in her distinctive cool and poised hand. Undaunted by New York’s male-dominated art world\, she was a vivid presence in downtown Manhattan and Provincetown\, pioneering as one of the first women to stage a Happening. Through decades of self-portraiture\, she boldly affirmed her own creative voice and upended narrow expectations of gender with wit and defiance. \n\n\n\nThis volume illuminates Marcus’s multifaceted significance: innovative artist of post-war New York\, creator of radically assertive self-portraiture\, and essential forerunner of figurative painting today. \n\n\n\nDebra Lennard is an independent scholar and associate curator\, Hayward Gallery Touring\, London. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarcia Marcus: I Paint What I Like.\n\n\n\nEdited by Debra LennardPreface by Jane Barrell Yadav and Kate PrendergastIntroduction by Melissa RachleffEssay by Debra LennardCoda by Brandon Brame FortuneContributions by Martha Edelheit\, Mimi Gross\, Chantal Joffe\, and Alex Katz \n\n\n\nPublisher: D Giles Limited\, London GilesLtd.com in association with Marcia Marcus Media Corp.\, Yonkers\, New York.

SUMMARY:Outer Cape Chamber Music Festival // Concert 3: Goldberg Variations
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors open at 6pm\, Concert begins at 6:30 | Advanced Tickets: $30 | Door Tickets: $35 | $15 for students and free for kids under 10 at the door\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBach’s Goldberg Variations hold a peculiar place in the repertoire: endlessly analyzed\, yet somehow endlessly mysterious. \n\n\n\nWritten in 1741 for two-manual harpsichord\, the work unfolds as an Aria followed by thirty variations — canons\, dances\, character pieces\, a boisterous quodlibet — before the Aria returns at the end\, the same notes now carrying the weight of everything that has come between. \n\n\n\nDmitry Sitkovetsky made his string trio arrangement in 1984\, dedicating it to the memory of Glenn Gould\, whose two landmark recordings (1955 and 1981) had done so much to place the Goldbergs at the center of musical life. The dedication is fitting: like Gould\, Sitkovetsky is less interested in replication than in reimagining. Distributing Bach’s voices across violin\, viola\, and cello transforms the music in subtle but profound ways. What was crystalline and percussive on the harpsichord becomes warm\, breathing\, sustained. The counterpoint — always present in the original — becomes something you can almost see\, each voice now embodied by a different instrument\, different timbre\, different physical presence on the stage. \n\n\n\nThe result is not Bach updated or Bach reimagined so much as Bach heard differently — as if a familiar room has been entered through a new door. \n\n\n\nProgram: \n\n\n\nJ. S. Bach\, Goldberg Variations (1741)\, arr. Sitkovetsky \n\n\n\nArtists: \n\n\n\nYoonhee Lee\, violin \n\n\n\nKen Hamao\, viola \n\n\n\nJoseph Gotoff\, cello \n\n\n\nThe Outer Cape Chamber Music Festival at PAAM brings world-class chamber music to Provincetown through an intimate concert series that uniquely integrates with the museum’s visual art exhibitions. Led by cellist Joseph Gotoff\, the series features concerts over two weeks in early summer\, performed by world-class musicians with ties to Cape Cod.
