Not only did the company present more than 200 exiting performances, but we also welcomed Yannick Nézet-Séguin as the Met’s new Jeanette Lerman- Neubauer Music Director. Maestro Nézet-Séguin is only the third conductor to hold the title of Music Director since the company’s founding in 1883. I am also happy to report that the 2018–19 season marked the fifth year running in which the company’s finances were balanced or very nearly so, as we recorded a very small deficit of less than 1% of expenses. The season opened with the premiere of a new staging of Saint-Saëns’s epic Samson et Dalila and also included three other new productions, as well as three exhilarating full cycles of Wagner’s Ring and a full slate of 18 revivals. The Live in HD series of cinema transmissions brought opera to audiences around the world for the 13th season, with ten broadcasts reaching more than two million people. Combined earned revenue for the Met (box office, media, and presentations) totaled $121 million. As in past seasons, total paid attendance for the season in the opera house was 75%. The new productions in the 2018–19 season were the work of three distinguished directors, two having had previous successes at the Met and one making his company debut.

  • Nostalgia: Collage, Collecting and the Paste
    NOSTALGIA: COLLAGE, COLLECTING AND THE PASTE Avant­garde traditions emphasize the critical moment of collage: cutting. As we have seen, artists–from dada to the situationists and punk subcultures–cut up the objects of consumer capitalism, shattering established orders and ideas, producing a critique of ideology and desire in radical and disturbing collages and assemblages. Their works emphasize the seams of collage and celebrate the fragments. But collage still has two moments: cutting and pasting, and the desire to gather together, to paste, to make a new whole is sometimes a utopian gesture, but one that is almost always profoundly nostalgic. Like the kabbalah myth of the breaking of the vessels, it is the hope that those fragments could be redeemed, the flood of words, images, and objects that make up our chaotic modern lives could be put together and made whole–that our fragmented selves might also be made whole. Artists Joseph Cornell and Andy Warhol, filmmaker Craig Baldwin, performers the Tap e­Beatles, collector William Davies King, and writers like Walter Benjamin and Don DeLillo emphasize these moments of gathering. This desire to order and conserve objects, maintains Jean Baudrillard, “is the discourse of subjectivity itself, and objects are a privileged register of that discourse.”1 If we should doubt Baudrillard’s point, we need only open a magazine or walk into a mall, where every object cries out to us that it might bring happiness and wholeness. Whi le few would consciously admit to believing such slick and impossible come ons, this is one of the most powerful forces animating everyday life in 174 Banash consumer culture.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2011–12 3 Introduction 5 Metropolitan Opera Board of Directors 7 2011–12 Season Repertory & Events 14 2011–12 Artist Roster 15 The Financial Results 38 Patrons Introduction The Metropolitan Opera’s 2011–12 season was marked by an impressive string of artistic successes, while the company continued to address a challenging financial situation in ways that wouldn’t affect the high quality of productions. The company presented seven new stagings during the 2011–12 season, including the final two installments of a new Ring cycle, the Metropolitan Opera premiere of Donizetti’s Anna Bolena, and the world premiere of a new Baroque pastiche, The Enchanted Island, conceived by the Met. All seven new produc- tions, along with four revivals, were presented in movie theaters around the world as part of the Met’s Live in HD series, which has enabled the Met to assume a global leadership position as a provider of special cinema content. The Live in HD series continued to be a money-maker for the Met, earning $27.1 million. Combined earned revenue for the Met (Live in HD and box office) totaled $121.5 million. The 2011–12 season once again brought together the finest singers, conductors, directors, designers, choreog- raphers, and video artists in the world. Such extraordinary directors as Robert Lepage, Phelim McDermott, David McVicar, and Laurent Pelly returned to create new productions, with Michael Grandage and Des McAnuff making directorial debuts with the company. The culmination of Lepage’s new Met Ring cycle was the talk of the opera world, and the new Baroque pastiche The Enchanted Island, devised and written by Jeremy Sams, represented a remarkable new creative endeavor.

  • Laura Spelman Rockefeller 1839-1915
    Laura Spelman Rockefeller 1839-1915 Memorialized by the LAURA SPELMAN ROCKEFELLER MEMORIAL FUND in The New York Community Trust er dark hair parted neatly down the center and waved softly over her ears, Miss Laura Celestia Spelman took her place on the stage of the Cleveland, Ohio, Central High HSchool and delivered the valedictory address. In her speech titled “I Can Paddle My Own Canoe,” the not-quite-15-year-old daughter of one of Cleveland’s most prosperous businessmen made a strong case for the right of women to pursue cultural and independent thought. Among the members of the senior class present and listening attentively that day was her friend John D. Rockefeller. Cettie Spelman—as she was called by family and friends—was the daughter of Harvey Buel Spelman and Lucy Henry Spelman, who had come to Ohio from Massachusetts. The second of their two daughters, Cettie, was born in Wadsworth, Ohio, on September 9, 1839. The Spelmans later moved to Akron, where Harvey prospered in the dry-goods business, and eventually settled in Cleveland. There Mr. Spelman pursued his interests in religion, politics, and the abolition movement. He helped to establish a Congregational church, was a member of the state legislature, and did what he could to help slaves fleeing to Canada. His wife was devoted to church work and the cause of temperance. His daughters, Lucy and Cettie, shared their mother’s interests. “Cettie” Spelman as a young woman. Cettie was deeply religious and had a strong sense of propriety. She was also a young woman with a mind and will of her own—indeed, quite capable of paddling her own canoe.

  • Andrè Kostolany (1906 - 1999)
    Appendices ANDRÈ KOSTOLANY (1906 - 1999) {Source: www.boersenschule24.de/bs24/boerse/persoenlichkeiten_kostolany.htm} It is interesting that he describes his family and other social contacts in great details and analyses the persons as well. This can be taken as a sign that social contacts were very important to him. A.1.1 Brief description Andrè Kostolany was one of the most prominent figures of the world’s financial markets. He was an American-Hungarian finance expert, trader and journalist. Kostolany was born in Hungary, lived in France, the USA, Germany, Switzerland and Austria during his life time. His most visited locations are Paris, the Côte d’Azur and Munich. Personally he referred to Paris as home, where he had been living since 1924. However, until his death he felt patriotic toward Hungary. Originally he wanted to become a art critic, having studied art history and philosophy in Budapest. However, due to a friend of his father he was introduced to the world of finance and stock trading. He soon discovered his passion and talent for this market, reaping his first successes in the 1920s in the Paris stock market. By the time he reached his mid-thirties he was general director, president and main shareholder of G. Ballai and Cie Financing Company. Although he experienced some draw backs he always recovered and managed to rebuild his wealth. Besides his great successes on the stock market he wrote numerous books which were translated into several languages and became international bestsellers. He continued to write for a series of high profile German and French financial papers and magazines, and gave lectures and talks around the world until his death.

  • Mccormick's Mansion Ruins “Villa Turicum” by Michael A. Schmitt
    McCormick’s Mansion Ruins “Villa Turicum” by Michael A. Schmitt As a teenager in the middle to late seventies I had friends living at Fort Sheridan Illinois. The fort is located between Highwood and Lake Forest Illinois. The fort had two beaches and a boat rental place. My friends and I would rent canoes from the North beach. One of our canoe outings went north along Lake Michigan’s shoreline. After a short distance we came upon some ruins. It was unlike anything we’ve ever seen before or since. The view from the water was of an old swimming pool crumbling and falling into Lake Michigan. The waves from the lake were lapping on the pool’s foundation. Looking up from the pool area was a large cliff and a tunnel. Someone had pushed a car off the cliff and it landed wheels down into the lake. The car had no visible fenders so it was hard to identify what kind it was. But it looked like it was from the fifties. The car was deep enough into the water so that the wave action would move the carburetor butterfly with every wave. It was very Erie. We beached the canoe and walked up some stairs to the swimming pool deck. The pool had gargoyles that had broken in half and fallen into the sand filled pool. On the old pool deck we saw curved stair cases on either side of a tunnel that had led to an elevator shaft. The tunnel was arched and at least twenty feet high.
