    Seattle Opera Announces 2021/22 Season— a Return to Live, In-Person Performances

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: May 11, 2021 Contact: Gabrielle Gainor (206) 295-0998, [email protected] Press images: https://seattleopera.smugmug.com/2122 Password: “press” Seattle Opera announces 2021/22 season— a return to live, in-person performances La bohème Orpheus and Eurydice Blue The Marriage of Figaro Plus a special recital by Lawrence Brownlee McCaw Hall and The Opera Center Subscriptions begin at $240 (BRAVO! Club, senior, and student pricing is also available). Single tickets will go on sale closer to each production. seattleopera.org SEATTLE—After more than a year without live, in-person performances due to COVID-19, Seattle Opera will officially return to the theater this fall with its 2021/22 Season. Offerings include immortal favorites (La bohème, The Marriage of Figaro), historic works with a modern twist (Orpheus and Eurydice), plus an award-winning piece speaking to racial injustice in America (Blue). It will take years for Seattle Opera—and the arts sector as a whole—to recover from the pandemic’s economic impact. Feeling the presence and excitement of live performance again is one way that the healing can begin, said General Director Christina Scheppelmann. “The theater, where music, storytelling, lights, performers, and audiences meet, is a space of magic and impact,” Scheppelmann said. “This past year has been difficult and challenging on so many levels. As we process all that we’ve been through, we can come here to enjoy ourselves. We can rediscover the positive moment and outlook we are seeking. Through opera, we can reconnect with our deepest emotions and our shared humanity.” In addition to mainstage productions, the company will offer a special, one-night- only recital by tenor Lawrence Brownlee (April 29, 2022, at McCaw Hall) with pianist John Keene.

My fellow officers, directors, and I would like to welcome you to the 2019 Conductors Guild National Conference. Any event in New York City is bound to be an exciting experience, and this year’s conference promises to be one you won’t forget. We began our conference with visits to the Metropolitan Opera for a rehearsal and backstage tour, and then we were off to the Juilliard School to see some of their outstanding manuscripts and rare music collection! Our session presenters will share helpful information, insightful and inspiring thoughts, and memories of one of the 20th Century’s greatest composers and conductors, Pierre Boulez. And, what would a New York event be without a little Broadway, and Ballet? An event such as this requires dedication and work from a committed planning committee.

  • Composing Each Time Robert Morris

    Composing Each Time Robert Morris

    Composing Each Time Robert Morris Introduction Each time I finish a piece, there is little time to rest or reflect; something else demands my attention, and I attend to it. Of course, finishing a piece is not really abrupt; after the first draft, there is revision, computer engraving, and editing. During these tasks, new ideas and conceptions begin to enter consciousness so the experience of writing a particular piece fades even before all the work is done. Later, when I return to a work—to coach a performance or lecture on it—I try to reconstruct the process of composition and return to the way it felt to write it, but much of the passion and clarity that brought the work into being is lost. With some thought of addressing this problem I decided immediately after completing my piano piece Each Time to write about it while the experience of its composition was still fresh in my memory. In this way, I hope to express as vividly as possible what I try to put into a piece and how and why—something which might be useful to future performers or listeners. In some respects, Each Time is not very different from my other piano pieces; however, I wanted to express in music some new insights I had into the phenomenology of time derived from Buddhist philosophy. Rather than spelling this out now, I’ll just say that I composed the piece so it might suggest to an attentive listener that impermanence is at the root of experience and that time is both flowing and discontinuous at once.
