Join chamber music collective Chatter in celebrating its 600th concert at Milonga de Las Puertas on Sunday, March 8 at 10:30am. Chatter performers—Jennifer Perez (soprano), Sarah Nickerson (mezzo), Tjett Gerdom (tenor), David Felberg (violin), Kim Fredenburgh (viola), Dana Winograd (cello), Jesse Tatum (flute) and Judith Gordon (piano)—take on Estonian composer Arvo Pärt’s musical setting of “Stabat Mater,” a 13th-century Christian hymn to Mary that highlights her suffering during his crucifixion as Christ's mother, Belinda Reynolds’ “Share,” Antonin Dvorak’s “Slavonic Fantasy” and Freddie Mercury’s “Bohemian Rhapsody.” Featured poet Iris Gersh is no stranger to these parts, having called both Taos and Albuquerque home. General admission tickets are $16 presale or $20 at the door, with discounted $9 admission for those under 30 and students and $5 tickets for kids 13 and younger. (Samantha Anne Carrillo)

City on the Edge is a breezy, smart podcast looking at the stories from Albuquerque history that have often been overlooked. Each episode takes a deep dive into a topic like the 1955 crash of TWA flight 260, Sandia Man or the 1918 quarantine. Worthwhile listening that will spur your curiosity about things you didn’t even know about in the city where you live. It’s free and available wherever you get your podcasts. (Clarke Condé)

Looking for a little chile? The 2020 Bosque Chile Festival, a celebration of food, art, and culture on the Rio Grande, is happening Saturday, August 15 and Sunday, August 16, with times waiting to be officially announced. But due to COVID-19 and the State of New Mexico public health order, the festival will be presented virtually! There will still be entertainment, art activities, a virtual artisan market, chile-chef demonstrations, educational workshops and more. This free, all-ages event is meant to give those stuck at home a chance to see what the state has to offer. If you are a high-quality chile-inspired and authentic New Mexican business with an e-commerce website and want to be a vendor, there is still time. Applications are being accepted until Wednesday, August 5. For more information email bosquechilefestival@bernco.gov.
