We spend all year planning: auditioning many singers, choosing the thirty-two emerging artists who will be a part of Seagle Music Colony, and finally getting the colony open and ready to receive this crop of amazing singers and our wonderful staff. Although this is our 103rd season, so many things are new here at SMC! With a fall season almost as robust as our summer season, we are well on our way to achieving one of the dreams we spoke about in last year’s program – that of being a company that operates longer each year. We are extremely excited about the offerings this summer. In celebration of the great composer and conductor Leonard Bernstein’s 100th birthday, we present his Broadway/Opera masterpiece Candide in a wonderful realization by Richard Kagey who is celebrating his own anniversary - 56 years at the Colony! Next we bring you, Julius Caesar (Giulio Cesare) by Handel: our first- ever Baroque opera. Stage director Candace Evans promises “no togas in this show” - it will be a modern telling of this ancient story. Following that is John Harbison’s The Great Gatsby after the novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Premiered by the Metropolitan Opera in 1999, this grand opera will evoke the sounds and sights of 1920’s New York. Finally, the blockbuster musical Mame by Jerry Herman directed by Kyle Lang will have you singing along with some of the most famous tunes ever written. Mame has been portrayed by many great actresses including Angela Lansbury, Lucille Ball and our own dear Patrice Munsel. The summer also includes a tour of the children’s opera Billy Goats Gruff, two Vespers Concerts, an exciting Alumni Weekend and Concert and of course many special events like the Gala and Guild Luncheon. This fall “the hill” will still be alive with song as we workshop two new pieces – an opera and a musical - as part of the American Center for New Works Development. The Ghosts of Gatsby by Evan Mack and Joshua McGuire explores the tempestuous relationship between Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Pooch by Scott Eyerly examines what would happen if a tenor/dog walker had to impersonate Puccini to fool the new boss of a publishing company. We will also have in-school performances of Billy Goats Gruff and a revue called Hey Big Spender featuring the music of Cy Coleman. One of the most exciting projects of the fall is a tour of The Falling and the Rising by Zach Redler and Jerre Dye. This opera explores the lives of our wounded veterans and their recovery. Compassion, courage and conviction are at the heart of the opera, which honors the women and men who defend and protect us. Last year we quoted Eleanor Roosevelt who said “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” It is YOUR belief in our dreams that has led us to this wonderful point in the long life of Seagle Music Colony. We cannot do any of this without your support. Your gifts are imperative to continuing the successes we are experiencing now. Every dollar or minute you invest in Seagle Music Colony makes an impact not only on our future, but on the entire world of opera and musical theater. We are creating the future together because we believe in our dream. Together we will change the world. Thank you for all that you do for Seagle Music Colony. Tony Kostecki, General Director Darren K. Woods, Artistic Director I am honored to welcome you to the 103rd season of Seagle Music Colony, our country’s oldest summer vocal training program, and the premier opera and musical theatre production organization in the North Country of New York State. As usual, this year’s summer season will feature some of the world’s most exceptional young vocal talent, but I am truly excited that the Colony has become much more than the premier vocal training program. Last year marked the introduction of the American Center for New Works Development, which, under the auspices of the Seagle Music Colony, is devoted to the creation of new American compositions, and the re-working of recently premiered works. Two such works were last year’s performances of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead and the chamber opera The Falling and the Rising. This year’s production of The Great Gatsby is a re-working of this recently premiered opera, using the talents of our emerging artists and renowned faculty. Not only have we expanded Seagle’s artistic scope, we have also begun the implementation of a master plan to enhance our campus. Our new faculty housing facility opened last year, and plans are in development for other building projects including the construction of a new state of the art theater. None of this would be possible without our outstanding leadership and faculty, led by our General Director Tony Kostecki and our Artistic Director/Development Director Darren Woods, who have once again assembled an array of vocal talent that will leave you spellbound during each performance. I would also be remiss if I didn’t mention our special group of volunteers led by the members of the Seagle Music Colony Guild, who work tirelessly to ensure the success of the Colony. While we at Seagle have much to be proud of, it is only through your continued support and generosity that our visions for the future can come to fruition. Please take the opportunity to speak with me, Darren, Tony or any of our Board members, about ways in which you feel you can become a member of our Seagle Family and contribute to our exciting future. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the performance. Seth D.

  • Episodes from a Hudson River Town Peak of the Catskills, Ulster County’S 4,200-Foot Slide Mountain, May Have Poked up out of the Frozen Terrain
    1 Prehistoric Times Our Landscape and First People The countryside along the Hudson River and throughout Greene County always has been a lure for settlers and speculators. Newcomers and longtime residents find the waterway, its tributaries, the Catskills, and our hills and valleys a primary reason for living and enjoying life here. New Baltimore and its surroundings were formed and massaged by the dynamic forces of nature, the result of ongoing geologic events over millions of years.1 The most prominent geographic features in the region came into being during what geologists called the Paleozoic era, nearly 550 million years ago. It was a time when continents collided and parted, causing upheavals that pushed vast land masses into hills and mountains and complementing lowlands. The Kalkberg, the spiny ridge running through New Baltimore, is named for one of the rock layers formed in ancient times. Immense seas covered much of New York and served as collect- ing pools for sediments that consolidated into today’s rock formations. The only animals around were simple forms of jellyfish, sponges, and arthropods with their characteristic jointed legs and exoskeletons, like grasshoppers and beetles. The next integral formation event happened 1.6 million years ago during the Pleistocene epoch when the Laurentide ice mass developed in Canada. This continental glacier grew unyieldingly, expanding south- ward and retreating several times, radically altering the landscape time and again as it traveled. Greene County was buried. Only the highest 5 © 2011 State University of New York Press, Albany 6 / Episodes from a Hudson River Town peak of the Catskills, Ulster County’s 4,200-foot Slide Mountain, may have poked up out of the frozen terrain.

Dell Katherine “Kit” Duffy Adrienne J. Goodman Marie J. Kuda Mary D. Powers 2 3 4 CHICAGO LGBT HALL OF FAME The Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame (formerly the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame) is both a historic event and an exhibit. Through the Hall of Fame, residents of Chicago and the world are made aware of the contributions of Chicago’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) communities and the communities’ efforts to eradicate bias and discrimination. With the support of the City of Chicago Commission on Human Relations, its Advisory Council on Gay and Lesbian Issues (later the Advisory Council on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues) established the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame (changed to the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame in 2015) in June 1991. The inaugural induction ceremony took place during Pride Week at City Hall, hosted by Mayor Richard M. Daley. This was the first event of its kind in the country. Today, after the advisory council’s abolition and in partnership with the City, the Hall of Fame is in the custody of Friends of the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame, an Illinois not- for-profit corporation with a recognized charitable tax-deductible status under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3).
