Los Angeles Opera Presents the Kurt Weill/Bertolt Brecht MAHAGONNY David Gregson Sunday, 25 February 2007
Los Angeles Opera presents the Kurt Weill/Bertolt Brecht MAHAGONNY David Gregson Sunday, 25 February 2007 Audra McDonald in the final moments of "Mahagonny" in LA. Photo by Robert Millard. Los Angeles: February 14 In their terrifying apocalyptic pessimism, nothing in opera rivals the final few moments of Kurt Weill’s Mahagonny. The stage fills with men and women marching together and carrying placards protesting every conceivable good and evil on earth. Society has become so aimless, amoral and decadent that even God cannot come to its rescue. Nor can He send all the sinners to hell, because, as they themselves complain, “We always were in hell.” Over music of powerful, grim fatality, the chorus sings, “No one, nothing – nothing can help a dead man.” Chords pound out of the orchestra like massive punches to the face. And they keep coming – thunderously, inexorably. The chorus sings words written by Weill’s great collaborator, Bertolt Brecht, whose text is far more powerful in the original German than any in any English translation: “Können einen toten Mann nicht helfen….Können uns und euch und niemand helfen!” You – we -- the audience. We’re the ones who cannot be helped. And we know it’s true. Wagner’s Ring ends with a terrific cataclysmic tone painting representing the end of the world. It’s awesome, to be certain – and there is nothing quite like that in any other opera either. But before this tone painting fades, we hear the famous “redemption through love” leitmotif winding its forgiving way through the orchestra. Though scholars and critics do not agree exactly about the exact name of this melody, there’s little question that it represents a ray of hope. -

ANN HAMPTON CALLAWAY - Biography
ANN HAMPTON CALLAWAY - Biography ANN HAMPTON CALLAWAY is one of the finest singer/songwriters of our generation. The statuesque performer dazzles music lovers as a singer, pianist, composer, lyricist, arranger, actress, and educator. Her talents have made her equally at home in jazz and pop as well as on stage, in the recording studio, on TV and in film. She is best known for starring in the hit Broadway musical "SWING!" and for writing and singing the theme to the internationally successful TV series,” THE NANNY". Ann is a devoted keeper-of-the-flame of the great American songbook. She brings fresh and original interpretations to these timeless classics and works to uphold the canon by writing songs with Cole Porter, Carole King, Barbara Carroll and others. Her spontaneity, intelligence, and soulful charisma have won her a diverse fan-base including notables as Barbra Streisand, Clive Davis, Carly Simon and Wynton Marsalis. The New York Times writes, “For sheer vocal beauty, no contemporary singer matches Ms. Callaway.” Ann attributes her voice and love of music to her mother, Shirley, who throughout her childhood sang and played torch songs, Gershwin and German lieder at the piano. Of the uniquely musical household she says, “I didn’t know it at the time, but we were sort of the Von Trapp family of Chicago.” After a music teacher discovered her unusually mature soprano voice, Ann was encouraged to study classically, honing the pitch-perfect control and expressive three octave range she is known for. While her voice teachers suggested she could have a career in opera, Ann eventually realized that she would be happier singing the music she most loved. -
