In a video message, Burns explained why he thought Baseball in particular was well-suited for this moment, above and beyond the fact that sports are canceled and America’s dads are going stir-crazy: Baseball, which offers 18½ solid hours of entertainment, can be viewed on the PBS website and through the network’s various streaming apps. The Walt Disney Company Disney hasn’t announced any free entertainment, but it has released Frozen 2 to its streaming network Disney+ three months earlier than planned. Like the brooms from Fantasia, this surprise home video release will initially seem like a marvelous gift to overwhelmed parents stuck in the house with their children, but will gradually transform into a horrible curse to overwhelmed parents stuck in the house with their children, depending on how quickly those children learn to sing “Into the Unknown.” For children of all ages, Disney has moved up the home video release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker; it was scheduled for Tuesday, but the film is now available to purchase on digital platforms. Discwoman Perhaps more than any other musical genre, electronic dance music is designed to be listened to with lots of other people, packed into a very tight space, breathing on each other. Those last two criteria are not viable right now, but if you’d like to collectively listen to some EDM, that’s happening on Sunday afternoon: Christine McCharen-Tran, the founder of electronic music collective Discwoman, has announced a livestream with a lineup of DJs providing “daytime party music” from an empty room: McCharen-Tran is providing Venmo links for the DJs, so EDM fans can help mitigate the financial damage as clubs shutter. You can tune in at harrisonplace.nyc. Scholastic As the nation’s schools shut down, one question is on the lips of every child in America: Where will we get our homework? In reply, children’s book publisher Scholastic has launched Learn at Home, a website offering daily enrichment projects for kids stuck at home, sorted by grade level. The projects are cleverly designed attention traps: An article about the Loch Ness monster lures kids in with the promise of monsters before tricking them into learning about DNA and the scientific method; an article about Star Wars filming locations covers film production and geography before pivoting into a discussion of latitude and longitude. Some of the lessons for younger kids use Scholastic’s BookFlix service, but Scholastic has created a generic login and password (username: Learning20, password: Clifford) to unlock access. The Dropkick Murphys The novel coronavirus couldn’t have arrived at a worse time for Massachusetts’ thriving Celtic punk industry; its entire year is structured around St. Patrick’s Day, when the country’s demand for Celtic punk hits its annual peak. But the Dropkick Murphys are stepping up to ensure that this year’s St. Patrick’s Day is just as raucous as ever. On Tuesday, they will be streaming an entire concert, live from Boston. The show starts at 7 p.m. Eastern and will be available on the band’s YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram pages. America’s High School Theater Departments High schools are canceling their spring musicals, which means an entire generation of up-and-coming actors are missing out on a crucial opportunity to get theatrical experience—and an entire generation of up-and-coming non-actors are missing out on the high point of their entire theatrical careers. Tony- winning actress Laura Benanti remembered how important high school productions were to her, so she posted a video message on Twitter inviting high school students to post videos of the performances they would no longer be giving. “If you would like to sing a song that you are not going to get to sing now, and you would like to tag me, I want to see you. I want to hear it,” Benanti said. America’s theater kids have never needed much prompting to put on a show, and they responded overwhelmingly. Benanti’s Twitter feed is now an anthology of the nation’s talented kids performing musical theater, ranging in production value from kids singing alone in a room to rehearsal footage of lavish production numbers from canceled shows. The best response, however, came from a crew member showing off the performance he’d been practicing all year: Benanti has been encouraging users to tag their performances with the #SunshineSongs hashtag on Twitter. We’ll update this page with more details as our nation’s cultural institutions continue to smoothly roll out their rational, well-coordinated response to the novel coronavirus outbreak.

  • 10-12-2019 Turandot Mat.Indd
    Synopsis Act I Legendary Peking. Outside the Imperial Palace, a mandarin reads an edict to the crowd: Any prince seeking to marry Princess Turandot must answer three riddles. If he fails, he will die. The most recent suitor, the Prince of Persia, is to be executed at the moon’s rising. Among the onlookers are the slave girl Liù, her aged master, and the young Calàf, who recognizes the old man as his long-lost father, Timur, vanquished King of Tartary. Only Liù has remained faithful to the king, and when Calàf asks her why, she replies that once, long ago, Calàf smiled at her. The mob cries for blood but greets the rising moon with a sudden fearful reverence. As the Prince of Persia goes to his death, the crowd calls upon the princess to spare him. Turandot appears in her palace and wordlessly orders the execution to proceed. Transfixed by the beauty of the unattainable princess, Calàf decides to win her, to the horror of Liù and Timur. Three ministers of state, Ping, Pang, and Pong, appear and also try to discourage him, but Calàf is unmoved. He reassures Liù, then strikes the gong that announces a new suitor. Act II Within their private apartments, Ping, Pang, and Pong lament Turandot’s bloody reign, hoping that love will conquer her and restore peace. Their thoughts wander to their peaceful country homes, but the noise of the crowd gathering to witness the riddle challenge calls them back to reality. In the royal throne room, the old emperor asks Calàf to reconsider, but the young man will not be dissuaded.

    SAN FRANCISCO OPERA CENTER AND MEROLA OPERA PROGRAM ANNOUNCE 2020 SCHWABACHER RECITAL SERIES January 29 Kicks Off First of Four Recitals Highlighting Emerging Artists and Unique Musical Programs Tickets available at sfopera.com/srs and (415) 864-3330 SAN FRANCISCO, CA (January 6, 2019) — Now in its 37th year, the Schwabacher Recital Series returns on Wednesday, January 29, with performances at San Francisco’s Dianne and Tad Taube Atrium Theater that feature emerging artists from around the globe. Presented by San Francisco Opera Center and Merola Opera Program, the annual Schwabacher Series consists of four Wednesday evening recitals, the last of which concludes on April 22. The first-ever Schwabacher series was presented in December 1983, kicking off a decades-long San Francisco tradition of presenting rising international talent in the intimacy of a recital setting. The 2020 series will blend classics like Hector Berlioz’s Les Nuits d’Été with rarely performed 20th- and 21st-century works like Olivier Messiaen’s Harawi. JANUARY 29: ALICE CHUNG, LAUREANO QUANT AND NICHOLAS ROEHLER (From left to right: Alice Chung, Laureano Quant and Nicholas Roehler) The series opens on January 29 with a set of performers recently seen as part of the Merola Opera Program: mezzo-soprano Alice Chung, baritone Laureano Quant and pianist Nicholas Roehler. Twice named as a Merola artist—once in 2017 and again in 2019—Chung returns to the 1 Bay Area for this recital, having been hailed as a “force of nature” by San Francisco Classical Voice (SFCV). She will tackle a range of works, from Colombian composer Luis Carlos Figueroa’s soothing lullaby “Berceuse” to cabaret-inspired works like William Bolcom’s “Over the Piano.” Quant, a 2019 Merola participant, joins Chung to perform Bolcom’s music, as well as select songs from Berlioz’s Les Nuits d’Été and Francesco Santoliquido’s I Canti della Sera.

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
