FY19 Annual Report View Report
Annual Report 2018–19 3 Introduction 5 Metropolitan Opera Board of Directors 6 Season Repertory and Events 14 Artist Roster 16 The Financial Results 20 Our Patrons On the cover: Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes a bow after his first official performance as Jeanette Lerman-Neubauer Music Director PHOTO: JONATHAN TICHLER / MET OPERA 2 Introduction The 2018–19 season was a historic one for the Metropolitan Opera. Not only did the company present more than 200 exiting performances, but we also welcomed Yannick Nézet-Séguin as the Met’s new Jeanette Lerman- Neubauer Music Director. Maestro Nézet-Séguin is only the third conductor to hold the title of Music Director since the company’s founding in 1883. I am also happy to report that the 2018–19 season marked the fifth year running in which the company’s finances were balanced or very nearly so, as we recorded a very small deficit of less than 1% of expenses. The season opened with the premiere of a new staging of Saint-Saëns’s epic Samson et Dalila and also included three other new productions, as well as three exhilarating full cycles of Wagner’s Ring and a full slate of 18 revivals. The Live in HD series of cinema transmissions brought opera to audiences around the world for the 13th season, with ten broadcasts reaching more than two million people. Combined earned revenue for the Met (box office, media, and presentations) totaled $121 million. As in past seasons, total paid attendance for the season in the opera house was 75%. The new productions in the 2018–19 season were the work of three distinguished directors, two having had previous successes at the Met and one making his company debut. -
The Foreign Service Journal, June 1962
A In This Issue The Modernization Process and Insurgency, by Henry C. Ramsey JUNE 7962 Since men began living together in organized societies, leaders have recognized a potent factor governing any action they may be about to undertake. The Romans called it vox populi. We still use the classic Latin phrase when referring to "the expressed opinion of the people" For many years, in over 100 countries, the people have been expressing their opinion of Seagram’s V.O. Canadian Whisky, with its true lightness of tone and its rare brilliance of taste. It is an enthusiastically positive opinion with a measureable effect: throughout the world more people buy A CANADIAN ACHIEVEMENT HONOURED THE WORLD OVER The Foreign Service Journal is the professional journal of the American For¬ FORSTGF^^^|JOURNAL eign Service and is published by the American Foreign Service Association, a non¬ profit private organization.

Over the past fve years, the number of high-profle murders at the hands of police has drawn national attention to the epidemic of police violence and the treatment of Black people in the United States (US). While the particular role played by police in the op- pression of Black people has been ongoing—a story told and retold with painstaking articulation in urban uprisings from Watts in 1965 to Baltimore in 2015—only recently have a signifcant number of petty-bourgeois and white people become familiar with it, newly “woke” to the sheer volume of incidents of brutality and murder per- petrated by police. Furthermore, only a select few cases were given coverage by mainstream media throughout the years, while today the epidemic nature of police violence is being more widely report- ed. In response to these outrages and to their revelation of a system- ic issue, hundreds of thousands have taken to the streets demanding justice, giving rise to a movement against unchecked police terror and violence. While noteworthy, this is hardly the frst incident of organized resistance to oppressive policing; the central, founding tenet of the Black Panther Party (BPP) at the time of its inception in 1966, for example, was to protect the Black community of Oak- land, California from the continuous abuse visited upon it by law enforcement (as is evident in the BPP’s original name: the Black Pan- 39 The October 22 Coalition logo. -

Authorities refuse to identify the officer or divulge the circumstances surrounding the shooting. On Aug. 17, several hundred Black residents held a protest at city hall to demand justice. Source: Yahoo!/States News Service, 8/17/98 Calvin Moore 18 — February 21, 1996. Kilby Correctional Facility: Mr. Moore was serving a two-year sentence for a burglary conviction. He weighed about 160 pounds on Jan. 26, 1996. When he died less than a month later, he weighed 110 pounds. He had lost 56 pounds in less than a month and suffered symptoms of severe mental illness as well as dehydration and starvation after entering the prison. Despite the fact that Calvin was often unable to walk or talk and spent days lying on the concrete floor of his cell in a pool of his own urine, nurses repeatedly failed to provide basic medical care. Not even his vital signs were recorded for the last nine days of his life. An official state autopsy, which concluded that he died of “natural causes,” was called a “whitewash” by an internationally renowned expert on forensic medicine. The expert said Calvin’s death was “a homicide resulting from criminal negligence.” The prison’s health-care provider, Correctional Medical Services (CMS), said, “It is clear the health care staff provided appropriate and compassionate care.” Calvin Moore’s father sued CMS and seven medical professionals, including nurses and doctors, charging malpractice and negligence. -
