8 PENNSWOOD BULLETIN 12-13-19 ARTICLES AND NOTICES STAFF AND RESIDENT NOTICES Sunday at the Opera presents by Gian Carlo Menotti—Special Christmas Showing

(The December 25, 1955, Live, TV Production}

Amahl: Bill McIver His Mother: Rosemary Kuhlmann King Kaspar: Andrew McKinley King Melchior: David Aiken King Balthasar: Leon Lishner Conductor: Thomas Schippers

Amahl and the Night Visitors premiered on black-and-white NBC Television on December 25th evening, 1951. Gian Carlo Menotti was a young Italian American composer, whose music making was closely tied to his Roman Catholic roots—and to his national heritage of romantic opera. Yet this opera broke important new ground. It was the first ever composed specifically for TV production. That meant it had to fit into a TV time slot, minus minutes for advertisements. Amahl runs just 43 minutes. What Menotti accomplished in these short minutes is remarkable. Several distinct scenes flow from one to another in a single “act” without breaks, even for ads (a major TV concession to the music!). Menotti’s story flows with the scenes, building intensity and emotion toward a miraculous climax—and happy ending. A conscious artistic inspiration guided Menotti in composing this opera—the Adoration of the Magi, painted in 1470-75 by Hieronymus Bosch. Mary Wademan, Sunday at the Opera
