North Shore Teacher Hit Outside High School GCHS Honors Its All-County Volume XXII No. 27 Hometown Newspaper for Glen Cove, Sea Cliff, Glen Head, Glenwood, Locust Valley and Brookville Week of 3/7/13 75C North Shore Teacher Hit Outside High School By Carol Griffin Christopher Whalley, a North Shore School Latin teacher, was struck and in- jured by a reckless driver on Glen Cove Avenue as he was crossing the road go- ing from the high school to the middle school on March 1 at about 10:30 a.m. Police believe that the teacher had the right of way and was in the crosswalk when he was struck by a Lexus. The driver, Cruz Correa, 28 years old from Glen Cove, was driving a 1991 Lexus when he hit the teacher. He also hit and seriously injured a couple that was com- ing toward him in the southbound lane in Volkswagen. Law enforcement officials said they believe the Correa’s ability to drive at the time was impaired. Correa was arrested and charged with reckless driving. Police said he will be arraigned after he recovers from his injuries. Speaking with Chief Michael Ric- cardo of Glenwood Fire Company, he said the call on “pedestrian struck” came into his department shortly after it oc- curred. He said Glenwood responded with an ambulance, he requested am- bulances from Sea Cliff a from Nassau County. He also radioed Roslyn Rescue Fire Department for their EMS Unit for assistance. The horrible accident started with the 1991 Lexus (inset- top left) hitting a teacher who was walking on Glen Cove Avenue. It then hit a Volkswagen (insert- top right). continued on page 2 Above: Nassau County Police conduced an investigation throughout most of the afternoon. (photos by Kevin C.

    ROSEMARY HYLER RITTER Founder/Artistic Director Matthew Morris and Liza Stepanova Associate Artistic Directors “Bright is the ring of words when the right man rings them.” – Robert Lewis Stevenson THE COMPLETE RECITALIST MAY 31-JUNE 28, 2014 The Stern Fellowship Program for Singers and Pianists has generously been funded by The Marc and Eva Stern Foundation. We gratefully acknowledge and thank the Stern family! SongFest is thrilled to announce that two well-known members of our community have joined the artistic team as associate artistic directors this season: Matthew Morris, baritone (Stern Fellow ’10 and Faculty ’12,’13) and Liza Stepanova, pianist (Stern Fellow ’09 & ’10, Faculty ’11,’12, and ‘13). As a program dedicated to the unique marriage of poetry and music brought to life by a singer and a pianist, SongFest could not imagine a better team than these artists who both attended the program as participants and returned each year thereafter as faculty. Matthew has a unique performing career that combines recital (he most recently made his Kennedy Center debut as the winner of the Vocal Arts DC competition), concert (debuts with the London, American, Boston, and MDR Leipzig Symphony Orchestras), opera (including New York City Opera and Santa Fe Opera), theater (the Bouffes du Nord in Paris, West End, and Piccolo Teatro in Milan), and film and television (The Producers and Law & Order). He trained at the Juilliard School, at the Bard Conservatory with Dawn Upshaw, and with Peter Brook and Marcello Magni of the Lecoq school. We are honored that he shares his breadth and depth of experience each summer with our singers as Director of the Young Artist Program.

    Concerts and Master Classes June 30-July 19, 2014 1 About the Program In its ninth year, Westminster’s CoOPERAtive Program provides three weeks of intensive opera training for young singers. The program is presented in cooperation and consultation with professionals in the field of opera and is designed to help young singers prepare for the essential next step toward acceptance into an advanced young artist or summer apprentice program. The CoOPERAtive offers three levels of training: 1. CoOPERAtive Fellows - singers who are either current graduate students or post graduates, working toward a professional singing career. 2. CoOPERAtive Young Artists - singers who are current undergraduates in music conservatories around the country, who are preparing for graduate school. 3. CoOPERAtive Pianists - pianists who are working toward careers as coaches and conductors in opera and art song. CoOPERAtive is designed to assess the strengths of all participants, nurture their talents and assist in their skill development. Participants receive private coaching focusing on operatic style, performance techniques, dramatic presentation, language and diction, and body awareness, as well as résumé and application advice. CoOPERAtive features unique auditions in which singers are evaluated by professionals in the field of opera – advisors involved with regional opera and/or young artist programs. With their guidance, the program is customized to each singer’s needs to help improve his or her skills. Graduates of the program have been finalists in the Metropolitan Opera Council’s National Auditions and have gone on to work with opera companies throughout the United States. The public is welcome to attend master classes and concerts presented by participants at no charge.

    ROSEMARY RITTER Director THE COMPLETE RECITALIST MAY 25- JUNE 24, 2019 “Bright is the ring of words when the right man rings them.” –Robert Lewis Stevenson SongFest 2019 is lovingly dedicated to Janet Loranger and John Ritter. ©Jeanine Hill Photography “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” –Mary Oliver Welcome to SongFest 2019 “Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, you can. Boldness has a genius, magic and power to it.” – Goethe ©Jeanine Hill Photography Our SONGFEST mission, under the all-encompassing Californian skies, is to bring together the old and new where the study of masterpieces from the past enhances the vitality and relevance of contemporary music. Many of the singers and pianists have come here because they already sense that art song has brought depth and refinement to their lives, both as musicians and human beings. Younger performers at Colburn find themselves crossing a summer threshold that will lead to lifelong fealty. Teachers and students share a devotion to a genre that is too easily labelled “elitist” or simply “boring”. These golden weeks, shining with youthful energy, purpose and enthusiasm, demonstrate that art song is impossible to belittle or dismiss – old hands inspired by fresh and questing talent pass on a tradition rich in the articulation of many of civilisation’s most precious values. If art can make men see things in a different way, one should never underestimate the power of great poetry from many countries in tandem with great music to touch a hitherto unresponsive heart and make a difference.

    Viewpoints Made in China New Voices in Western Opera Thursday, June 19 2014 ● 6:30–8:00 pm Viewpoints Made in China: New Voices In Western Opera Confirming Time magazine's prediction that "the future of opera may be in China," state-of-the-art Chinese theaters now showcase Western repertory and new Chinese works, while Chinese-born singers have grabbed the spotlight on opera stages across the globe. Soprano Ying Huang and baritone Yunpeng Wang join pianist Siyi Fang to explore the shifting role of China on the international opera stage. This program will include live excerpts, film clips, and a lively discussion with music critic Ken Smith. Viewpoints is an annual series featuring prominent, visionary figures in the creative arts and is made possible by the generous support of Aashish and Dinyar S. Devitre. Ying Huang, a renowned lyric coloratura has been hailed as "the nightingale from China," and is one of the outstanding vocal artists active in opera and concert performances worldwide. After first gaining international attention in the title role in Frédéric Mitterrand's 1995 film adaptation of Madame Butterfly, she later sang the role of Pamina in the Metropolitan Opera's inaugural HD telecast of The Magic Flute in 2006 and three years later was included in the "Wall of Fame" in the Met's 125th Anniversary celebration. A champion of contemporary Chinese operas, she has created the leading roles in many new works, including Tan Dun's Peony Pavilion, Guo Wenjing's Poet Li Bai, and Zhou Long's Madame White Snake, which won the 2011 Pulitzer Prize.

The company maintained its commitment to presenting a wide-ranging lineup of new productions, offering eight new stagings in the 2009–10 season, followed by seven the next year. Eleven of these productions were seen in movie theaters around the world as part of the Met’s Live in HD series, which continued to expand and provide a bright spot to the company’s financial outlook. As the world’s leading producer of alternative cinema content, the Met’s Live in HD series pushed the company’s earned revenues to record levels. The Met’s worldwide HD earnings were $27 million and $31 million, respectively, in 2009–10 and 2010–11. Combined earned revenues for the Met (HD and Met box office) equaled $119 million in 2009–10 and grew to $126 million in 2010–11. A total of 21 HD programs and 205 audio transmissions were produced during these two fiscal years, adding significantly to the Met’s rich library of intellectual content. The 2009–10 Season The 2009–10 season proved to be an extraordinary showcase for the artistry of the world’s greatest singers, conductors, directors, and designers. Such acclaimed directors as Patrice Chéreau, Richard Eyre, Bartlett Sher, and Mary Zimmerman, among others, created new productions for the Met.
