Alexander Schwarzkopf

Mother’s Day Sunday May 10, 2015 3:00 PM

Concert pianist, composer and teacher, Alexander Schwarzkopf returns to MarshAnne Landing for another amazing concert. Following his incomparable performance of Bach’s Goldberg Variations this past fall, Alex brings life to the music of Robert Schumann and his protégé Johannes Brahms.

The program opens with Schumann’s Fantasiesteucke, Op. 12, a set of eight pieces written in 1837. The duality of Schumann’s passionate and dreamer sides bring many moods to this composition.

Brahm’s Sonata No. 2 in F sharp minor written in 1852 is a sonata in four movements that was sent for publication along with a letter of recommendation from Schumann. The sonata shows off efforts to impress Schumann with its technical demands and highly dramatic nature.

Due to limited seating advanced reservations only-contact the winery at 541-459-7998

Admission $30 includes abundant appetizers.

About the "One Bottle" Project

A number of years ago I was tasked with finding a way to raise money to help with operation costs fora local chamber orchestra. I have many friends in the wine business and know that they are continually ask for cases, half cases, bottles, tastings, etc, and that it gets old fast. They are all very giving and caring people but they can't give away all their wine to help other people.
With that in mind, I decided that if I were going to ask anyone for wine, I would do it in person and just ask for one bottle. I drove my Subaru Legacy Wagon all over the state, putting on 180,000 miles.
The first year I gathered over 150 and last year I ended up with 259 bottles of Oregon wines for our auction. This year I gathered less because I knew that too much wine would be a problem for a "mixed" auction. This year I plan to create an auction for just the wine, separate from any other event.I was given wines from every wine region we have. I drove from Cave Junction (Foris) to Milton Freewater (Zerba) and to Bend (Volcano) Bonanza (12 Ranch) and the coast(Flying Dutchman). I traveled all over the Willamette Valley and Southern Oregon on my quest, met hundreds of wonderful wine people, made new friends, and tasted the bounty of Oregon.
I look forward to this years journey in my brand new Subaru Legacy and the support of all who helped last year and the year before, and of my wonderful wife, who puts up with this crazy idea!
