Such critiques are now so commonplace that it may be difficult to appreciate the opera's political edge unless it is seen against the backdrop of repression that marked the years following World War II: in an era in which a group as mainstream as the League of Women Voters was denounced as a "communist front organization," Trouble in Tahiti's criticisms risked reprisals.[1] Keywords: Musicals | Leonard Bernstein | Trouble in Tahiti | Gender | Feminism | Post World War II era Article: Leonard Bernstein's short opera Trouble in Tahiti (1951-52) is a humorous but scathing satire on postwar consumerism and bourgeois marriage.

    This Year Marks Leonard Bernstein's 100Th Birthday, and Some Philly Arts

    This year marks Leonard Bernstein’s 100th birthday, and some Philly arts and culture institutions are teaming up to celebrate his centenary with eye- and ear-opening firsts. We know Bernstein best for works such as West Side Story, but his 1951 opera, Trouble in Tahiti, also became an important cultural touchstone. It satirized the outwardly perfect and inwardly tumultuous family life of a suburban couple in 1950s America. But things got darker in the mid-1980s, when Bernstein revisited the same fictional family 30 years later, as a death calls them home, with 1983’s A Quiet Place. Bernstein’s last stage work In 1980, Bernstein teamed with 30-year-old writer Stephen Wadsworth in their joint inspiration for a sequel to Trouble in Tahiti, while they were both grappling with tragic losses in their own lives. The work would combine vernacular speech and music with relatable middle-class woes, performed through a mix of American musical theater and contemporary opera styles that was unusual and polarizing at the time. A Quiet Place premiered in Houston in 1983 as a one-act opera on a double bill with Trouble in Tahiti. Original conductor John Mauceri thought Bernstein and Wadsworth could revisit the two works again. They developed a new version of A Quiet Place that incorporated Trouble in Tahiti, creating one opera with the family’s complete arc, alternating between past and present and becoming a map of a changing U.S. culture from the 1950s to the ’80s. The revised A Quiet Place debuted successfully at La Scala in 1984 and went on to the Kennedy Center before returning to Europe.

A NOTE FROM THE COMPOSER Ever since Home Alone appeared, it has held a unique place in the affections of a very broad public. Director Chris Columbus brought a uniquely fresh and innocent approach to this delightful story, and the film has deservedly become a perennial at holiday time. I took great pleasure in composing the score for the film, and I am especially delighted that the magnificent Toronto Symphony Orchestra has agreed to perform the music in a live presentation of the movie. I know I speak for everyone connected with the making of the film in saying that we are greatly honoured by this event…and I hope that the audience at this performance will experience the renewal of joy that the film brings with it, each and every year.

    RESOLUTION NUMBER 1244 A RESOLUTION WELCOMING THE VIOLINISTAND EDUCATOR MIDORI TO BOULDER FINDINGS 1. Boulder has a long and deep commitment to arts and culture. It was originally shaped by the rich, impactfuland original culture ofthe Ute, Arapaho, Jicarilla Apache, Comanche, and Navajo nations that originally called this place home. One of the first modem cultural resources was the Colorado Chautauqua, founded before the incorporation of the city. The University of Colorado and residents of early Boulder continued this tradition, particularly with accomplishments among visual artists, authors, poets, filmmakers, and others. Today, Boulder wins awards forthe artists who live here, the organizations that present the art, and the commitment of the entire community to the advancement of culture. 2. The Boulder Philharmonic (Boulder Phil) and Greater Boulder Youth Orchestra (GBYO) were chosen froma national pool of applicants to bring the outstanding violinist and educator Midori to Boulder for a five-dayimmersive residency during the 2019-2019 season. 3. Midori is a celebrated and respected concert violinist of extraordinary talent and internationalfame. She has performed with the world's most important orchestras and received numerous awards including the Kennedy Center Gold Medal in the Arts in 2010. Expanding the role of her musical abilities, Midori is committed to education and cultural diplomacy, being named a United Nations Messenger of Peace. 4. Throughout her career, Midori has been devoted to working with youth and communities in a way that few performing artists of her caliber can claim. Through the Midori Orchestra Residency Program, she visits one or two mid-sized communities each year to share her impressive artistry and inclusive vision of the vital role that music and the arts can play - not only in the concert hall, but across the entire community and in the lifeof every citizen.
