His sophisticated Romanticism has a universal quality that is related to the European tradition and yet remains distinctly American. Perhaps this is why his soaring lyricism, rhythmic complexity, and harmonic language appealed to early–and mid–20th- century luminaries such as Fritz Reiner, Arturo Toscanini, Vladimir Horowitz, and Dimitri Mitropoulos. He achieved success early in his career, writing his first opera at age 10, and, at 14, entering Philadelphia’s Curtis Institute of Music, where he excelled in composition, piano, and voice. At 18, he won the Joseph H.

"Don Giovanni," directed by Ron Daniels and designed by Riccardo Hernandez, recalled an older Santa Fe Opera, with less built scenery than the other productions. Links: Check for full text via 360 Link Full text: The 2016 Festival Season The Santa Fe Opera Through Aug. 27 Santa Fe, N.M. -- The Santa Fe Opera's 60th season presented several pieces that rank just below standard repertory status, making strong cases for each of them with polished productions. Director Richard Jones and designer Miriam Buether staged Puccini's Gold Rush drama "La Fanciulla del West" in small spaces: The raucous miners in Minnie's ramshackle saloon seemed crowded together against the wild emptiness of the frontier outside, while big emotions filled the tiny cabin where Minnie and the sheriff Jack Rance played cards for the life of the bandit Dick Johnson. Mr. Jones's acute direction conveyed the opera's key theme of loneliness. A top-flight cast sold the splendid tunes of this underappreciated score. Patricia Racette brought warmth and honesty to the tough girl Minnie, playing mother and sister to the miners while holding out for true love; Gwyn Hughes Jones came on strong with his forceful, exciting tenor as Johnson, her unexpected prince; and Mark Delavan brought an appropriate harshness to the embittered Rance.

Narrating the Lives of Saints and Sinners in Samuel Barber's Hermit
1 NARRATING THE LIVES OF SAINTS AND SINNERS IN SAMUEL BARBER’S HERMIT SONGS Jennifer A. Konowal Honors Thesis Dr. Daniel Kazez May 13, 2015 2 The solitary, peaceful life of a hermit resonated with Samuel Barber. The theme of solitude appears in some of his works, including the Hermit Songs and Despite and Still, and many of the places where he gathered inspiration or retreated to for comfort were removed from society.1 A cottage in the Pocono Lake Reserve provided Barber with a sanctuary, a home of rest, during the mid-1900s, and it was called The Hermit.2 Even though Barber told his uncle in a letter that he was not actually a hermit, the concept of hermitage clearly appealed to the quieter part of his mind and soul.3 In November of 1952, Samuel Barber wrote to his uncle and role model Sidney Homer to announce that he had found a few early Irish poems that he planned to set to music.4 His interest in these poems was the result of a recent trip to Donegal, Ireland, which he had taken to explore some of the places associated with his favorite Irish authors, such as William Butler Yeats and James Joyce.5 An admirer of Irish poetry since his childhood, Barber told his uncle that he found the poems he had discovered to be “very direct, unspoiled and often curiously contemporaneous in feeling.”6 They were written by Irish monks and scholars in the 8th through 13th centuries in the margins of various types of manuscripts that were being illuminated or copied, and, because they were in Gaelic, Barber had to locate—and, in a few cases, commission—translations into English that he found suitable for his work.7 These poems represented a wide variety of subjects, 1 Barbara Heyman, Samuel Barber: The Composer and His Music (New York: Oxford University Press), 335.

Soprano Mary Elizabeth Williams Dazzles Audiences from Stage to Computer Screen
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: July 23, 2020 Contact: Gabrielle Kazuko Nomura Gainor (206) 295-0998, [email protected] Press images: https://seattleopera.smugmug.com/Events/MEW/ Password: “press” Soprano Mary Elizabeth Williams dazzles audiences from stage to computer screen Seattle Opera announces upcoming KING FM broadcasts and online recitals SEATTLE—Seattle Opera is announcing the final singers to perform in its online recital series, Songs of Summer. Artists include beloved soprano Mary Elizabeth Williams—star of Tosca, Nabucco, and Mary Stuart. The “vocal phenomenon and immense actress” (classiquenews.com) performed at McCaw Hall most recently as Serena in Porgy and Bess (’18), when she sang the show-stopping rendition of “My Man’s Gone Now.” For Williams’ portrayal of Elizabeth I in Mary Stuart, The Seattle Times wrote: “Feisty and mighty, Williams’ soprano was equally impressive when she lightened it in moments of highly effective refinement. She knows how to command the stage and how to establish the power of her personality through gesture and movement, as well as with her voice.” Scheduled to stream on Seattle Opera’s Facebook, YouTube, and website on August 27, Williams’ program includes three new-to-her arias that she’s always dreamed of debuting. “Despite the fear and uncertainty of this moment, creating this recital has helped me focus and remember why I dedicated my life to music,” Williams said. “What better time is there than this very moment to look forward to the future? To be brave and reinvent myself as an artist? Share this journey with me—digitally for now, and hopefully in person in the very near future.” Additional Songs of Summer artists include Theo Hoffman, a sought-after baritone who’s recently sung with LA Opera and Opera Philadelphia; Vanessa Vasquez, Winner of the 2017 Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions who was set to make her company debut as Mimì in La bohème; and Will Liverman, Figaro in The Barber of Seville (’17) who last season made history as the first Black Papageno at the Metropolitan Opera.
