November 10, 2020 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: James Cassidy (859) 431-6216 [email protected] L’Opera Famiglia (Two couples, great arias) 7:30 p.m. November 21, 2020 St. Peter in Chains Cathedral Basilica 8th and Plum Cincinnati, OH The Kentucky Symphony Orchestra continues its 29th season of in-person performances and live streaming with an evening of operatic and sacred arias. The KSO, over the last 20 seasons, has offered audiences complete concert operas — Tosca, Otello, La Boheme, Rigoletto, Samson & Delilah and Turandot. These productions featured a number of internationally recognized singers, many with local ties (CCM and the Cincinnati Opera). Four of these artists return as two couples for L’Opera Famiglia on November 21 at the Cathedral Basilica of St. Peter in Chains. Mezzo soprano Stacey Rishoi appeared in a KSO “Sopranos” evening and as Delilah (Samson & Delilah). Her husband Gustav Andreassen (bass) sang the role of Sparafucille (Rigoletto). Stacey and Gus when not on the road reside Bellevue, KY. Stuart Neill KSO at St. Peter in Chains Cathedral Feb. 23, 2020 (tenor) and Sandra Lopez (soprano) met as Rodolfo and Mimi in the KSO’s 2007 production of La Boheme. They were married a couple years later and live in Miami. “As with any team sport or artistic collaboration, cast chemistry is vital for success. We were fortunate for the stars to align to find these wonderful performers available this week,” commented KSO music director, James Cassidy. Those who don’t think that opera is their cup of tea, might be surprised to find many of the selections on the program very familiar to a universal audience (see below). -

VOCAL 78 Rpm Discs Minimum Bid As Indicated Per Item
VOCAL 78 rpm Discs Minimum bid as indicated per item. Listings “Just about 1-2” should be considered as mint and “Cons. 2” with just the slightest marks. For collectors searching top copies, you’ve come to the right place! The further we get from the time of production (in many cases now 100 years or more), the more difficult it is to find such excellent extant pressings. Some are actually from mint dealer stocks and others the result of having improved copies via dozens of collections purchased over the past fifty years. * * * For those looking for the best sound via modern reproduction, those items marked “late” are usually of high quality shellac, pressed in the 1950-55 period. A number of items in this particular catalogue are excellent pressings from that era. * * * Please keep in mind that the minimum bids are in U.S. Dollars, a benefit to most collectors. * * * “Text label on verso.” For a brief period (1912-14), Victor pressed silver-on-black labels on the reverse sides of some of their single-faced recordings, usually with a translation of the text or similarly related comments. BESSIE ABOTT [s]. Riverdale, NY, 1878-New York, 1919. Following the death of her father which left her family penniless, Bessie and her sister Jessie (born Pickens) formed a vaudeville sister vocal act, accompanying themselves on banjo and guitar. Upon the recommendation of Jean de Reszke, who heard them by chance, Bessie began operatic training with Frida Ashforth. She subsequently studied with de Reszke him- self and appeared with him at the Paris Opéra, making her debut as Gounod’s Juliette. -

A large body of published research exists regarding the physiology of breathing, the acoustics of singing, and solutions for specific vocal faults. There is similarly a growing body of research into the system of voice classification and repertoire assignment. This paper shall reexamine this research in light of baritenor voices. After establishing the general parameters of healthy vocal technique through appoggio, the various tenor, baritone, and bass Fächer will be studied to establish norms of vocal criteria such as range, timbre, tessitura, and registration for each Fach. The study of these Fächer includes examinations of the historical singers for whom the repertoire was created and how those roles are cast by opera companies in modern times. The specific examination of baritenors follows the same format by examining current and -

The Bald Soprano
The bald soprano Continue Follow the latest daily buzz with buzzFeed Daily Newsletter! For fans of the Sopranos it was a very good year. Sure, it's been 12 years since the HBO series gone, but news of the film's prequel in the works guaranteed more action from New Jersey's beloved fictional crime family. That's a big positive. Watching the cast and crew gather for the show's 20th anniversary party also had to ignite fond memories. Seeing everyone from Tony Sirico (Paulie Walnats) to Vincent Pastore (Big Pussy) and Dominique Chianer (Uncle Junior) in good health was a welcome sight. But there's still a wait to do until The Sopranos follow-up, Many Saints of Newark, arriving in theaters next year. Chances are you'll need at least a few shows to tide you off until then. With that in mind, we've put together a list of the best shows with The Sopranos quality you can stream now. They all have several seasons to enjoy, and some have new episodes coming in front of many Saints hits theaters. 1. Americans, or hide crime from the children of Americans FX In the first two seasons of The Sopranos, there is a lot of tension in the family as Meadow (Jamie-Lynn Sigler) and J.J. (Robert Iler) learn about the family business. When Meadow buys a good friend's car (as payment for his father's gambling debt), he gets too close to home. This corner of the suburban family resonates very differently than scenes from, say, Goodfellas or The Godfather.
