Features July 2007 — Vol. 71, No. 1 (http://www.operanews.org/Opera_News_Magazine/2007/7 /THE_CAREER_ISSUE.html) Changing Fortunes BARRY SINGER assesses the legacy of Gian Carlo Menotti, whose Saint of Bleecker Street arrives this month at Central City Opera. When Gian Carlo Menotti first Deep down, Menotti was surfaced, in 1937, as a twenty- no rebel. five-year-old Italian-born prodigy from the shores of Lake Lugano in Lombardy, by way of the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia, the world of American opera was waiting for him - or for someone, anyone like him. The Depression had taken down a number of America's major companies, including the Chicago Opera, and had pummeled the Metropolitan Opera to the brink of Muriel Dickson in the bankruptcy. Accessibility was suddenly a Met premiere of Menotti in rehearsal for paramount concern within these Menotti's Amelia Goes The Medium, 1947 infamously elitist institutions - to the Ball, 1938 (http://www.operanews.org accessibility in the populist sense of new /_uploaded/image/article (http://www.operanews.org /menottimedlg7107.jpg) social equality for potential ticket- /_uploaded/image/article Menotti in rehearsal for buyers, but also in the hardcore /dicksonamelialg7107.jpg) The Medium, 1947 marketing sense.

Menotti's Amelia Goes to the Ball, 1938 Of course, no one at the top knew precisely what such an opera should sound like. Menotti showed them. His first, Amelia al Ballo, was a frolicsome Puccini send-up with dark undercurrents - a mixture of diversion and dire foreboding for an American audience consumed by the oncoming conflagration in Europe.

His mother tells him that it’s time to go to bed. He delays as long as possible but, after being scolded by his mother, he finally takes his crutch and hobbles inside. Amahl tells his mother of a large bright star in the sky. She refuses to believe him, complaining that he is always making up tales. After Amahl and his mother go to sleep, voices are heard in the distance. There is a knock at the door and Amahl is sent to see who it is. He hastily returns and informs his mother that there are three kings at the door. Not believing him, she goes to the door herself and is stunned to discover that Amahl is, in fact, telling the truth — there are three kings at the door! The kings request lodging for the evening.
