  • Amy Ray Career
    A lot of artists defy categorization. Some do so because they are tirelessly searching for the place they fit, while others are constantly chasing trends. Some, though, are genuinely exploring and expressing their myriad influences. Amy Ray belongs in the latter group. Pulling from every direction — Patty Griffin to Patti Smith, Big Star to Bon Iver — Ray's music might best be described as folk-rock, though even that would be a tough sell, depending on the song. Ray's musical beginnings trace back to her high school days in Atlanta, Georgia, when she and Emily Saliers formed the duo that would become the Indigo Girls. Their story started in 1981 with a basement tape called “Tuesday's Children” and went on to include a deal with Epic Records in 1988, a Grammy in 1990, and nearly 20 albums over more than 30 years. Rooted in shared passions for harmony and justice, the Indigo Girls have forged a career that combines artistry and activism to push against every boundary and box anyone tries to put them in. As activists, they have supported as many great causes as they can, from LGBTQ+ rights to voter registration, going so far as to co-found an environmental justice organization, Honor the Earth, with Winona LaDuke in 1993. As artists, they have dipped their toes into a similar multitude of waters — folk, rock, country, pop, and more — but the resulting releases are always pure Indigo. Ray's six solo sets — and three live albums — have charted even wider seas, from the political punk of 2001's Stag to the feminist Americana of 2018's Holler.

  • Wednesday, July 31 Thursday, August 1
    Wednesday, July 31 7:00-8:45 p.m. Pearl (an opera) KJ Bradford Aud. Amy Scurria, Duke University Session Chair: Margaret Thickstun, Hamilton College Pearl is an opera in development by Amy Scurria, composer, Carol Gilligan, feminist psychologist and librettist, Jonathan Gilligan, professor, poet, and librettist, and Sara Jobin conductor and producer. This work draws on Hawthorne’s Scarlet Letter but seeks to tell a different story, not Hawthorne’s but one that uses Hawthorne’s characters and circumstances, and is informed by a 21st-century feminist worldview. Our opera is a retelling of the Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne from the perspective of the daughter, Pearl. Pearl is a grown woman, a writer, with a daughter of her own. She is looking back at the events that shaped her childhood, seeking to find the truth that she knew as a child, but could not tell. Our opera purposefully turns the operatic status quo on its head by refusing to have any women characters die, go mad, or commit suicide. Our project is a direct response to Catherine Clément’s revealing book Opera, or the Undoing of Women. We tell another story: one that sheds light on the ills of the patriarchy, the cruelty and political maneuvering that occur in attempting to fit within the patriarchal construct, and the damage that it causes to both men and women. We end our opera with a voice of hope, calling people to consider a “brighter day, a new union not founded on dusky grief, but on shared joy.” Pearl was workshopped in the Berkshires at Shakespeare and Company on August 13, 2012.
