Hail C.C. AMERICA, THE BEAUTIFUL (O Beautiful for Spacious Skies) Music written by Samuel A. Ward (1847–1903) Words written by Katharine Lee Bates (1859–1929) (Selected Verses) In 1893, Katharine Lee Bates was a visiting professor of English literature in Colorado College’s summer session. Bates and a group of faculty members went by prairie wagon and mules to the summit of Pikes Peak. There, inspired by the magnificent panorama, the poet conceived the initial verses of “America the Beautiful.” It was published in 1895 to national acclaim. Song Leaders: Zachary Anderson ’13 , The Back Row Kathleen Carroll ’13 , Ellement Harriet Jacobs ’13 , Room 46 O beautiful for spacious skies, O beautiful for pilgrim feet For amber waves of grain, Whose stern impassioned stress For purple mountain majesties A thoroughfare for freedom beat Above the fruited plain.

  • Florencia Grimaldi: Latin America's Soprano Heroine By
    Florencia Grimaldi: Latin America’s Soprano Heroine by Andrea Flores A Research Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved April 2013 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Carole FitzPatrick, Chair Dale Dreyfoos Amy Holbrook Judy May Russell Ryan ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2013 ABSTRACT Although opera is the last musical genre one typically associates with Latin America, Mexican composer Daniel Catán (1949-2011) found surprising success across the United States and overseas with his opera Florencia en el Amazonas (1996). Catán blends colorful music with literary elements to create a representation of Latin American culture through language, drama, scenery, and music. Among these elements is realismo mágico (magical realism), a significant characteristic of Latin American literature. Indeed, the plot of the opera is influenced by Gabriel García Márquez’s novel, El amor en los tiempos del cólera (Love in the Time of Cholera, 1985), as well as the poem “Mariposa de obsidiana” (Obsidian Butterfly, 1951) and the short story “La hija de Rappaccini” (Rappaccini’s Daughter, 1953), both by Octavio Paz. To create his protagonist in the opera, Florencia Grimaldi, Catán combines the dramatic qualities of several European soprano heroines. This figure’s character development is conveyed largely through her Act I, Scene 2, aria, “Florencia Grimaldi,” and her Act II, Scene 17, aria, “Escúchame.” An overview of the opera places these two arias into context, and their musical content and text-setting are closely examined in relation to the character of Florencia. Finally, how Daniel Catán creates a soprano heroine from the Latin American perspective is discussed.
