Iddunicipal ^sdudito PROGRAM Program Notes by Dr. Malcolm H. Dewey OVERTURE TO TANNHAUSER..................................................Richard Wagner (1813-1883) Had Richard Wagner capitalized upon the success of his first grand opera, Rienzi (1842), he might have gone on to be another Meyerbeer, but possibly little more. For here was opera which succeeded by the brilliance of the spectacle and the music rather than through intrinsic merit. It matters little that he failed to repeat the success in the Flying Dutchman, which followed within a year; a new Wagner was in evidence, certainly in more than embryonic state. Tempted though he was to return to historic subject matter so as to repeat the success of Rienzi, and he was actually at work on material dealing with Manfred, he turned to German legendary past, the Germany of epic and story, the world of the Minnesingers, and Tann- hauser, presented in 1845, was the outcome. As Wagner related the story, Tannhauser, who once loved the chaste Elizabeth, had found his way to the grotto of Venus.

  • Gay Atlanta – the Best Gay Hotels, Bars, Clubs & More Atlanta, the Georgia State Capital, Is Often Considered the Unofficial Gay Capital of the Southern USA
    Gay Atlanta – the best gay hotels, bars, clubs & more Atlanta, the Georgia state capital, is often considered the unofficial gay capital of the southern USA. Although the south may not have an LGBT-friendly reputation, this bustling metropolis is an open, friendly and welcoming destination for all travelers. Here you’ll find a melting pot of cultures and a unique mix of southern charm with all the conveniences of big city living. Atlanta is also a historically significant location due to its Important role during the American Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s. Today, it’s known for world-class museums, shopping, outdoor spaces, southern cuisine and nightlife as well as thriving neighborhoods. General ps The hot and humid summer weather between June and August gives merit to the nickname, Hotlanta. This is also when room rates are their highest. The best time to visit is from March to May when you’ll enjoy milder weather to spend time outside and take advantage of all the outdoor events and activities. To save a few dollars, try visiting in December, January or February when the city is less crowded and room prices drop due to the cooler weather. When planning your visit, also consider the Atlantic hurricane season that lasts from summer through fall and could interrupt your trip. When booking accommodations, keep in mind that Midtown is the center of gay life in Atlanta, although LGBT-friendly spots can be found throughout the city and suburbs. Other areas like Downtown, Westside, Ansley Mall/Cheshire Bridge, Buckhead and Grant Park and Cabbagetown all boast LGBT shops, restaurants and venues.
