  • A Countertenor's Reference Guide to Operatic Repertoire
    A COUNTERTENOR’S REFERENCE GUIDE TO OPERATIC REPERTOIRE Brad Morris A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC May 2019 Committee: Christopher Scholl, Advisor Kevin Bylsma Eftychia Papanikolaou © 2019 Brad Morris All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Christopher Scholl, Advisor There are few resources available for countertenors to find operatic repertoire. The purpose of the thesis is to provide an operatic repertoire guide for countertenors, and teachers with countertenors as students. Arias were selected based on the premise that the original singer was a castrato, the original singer was a countertenor, or the role is commonly performed by countertenors of today. Information about the composer, information about the opera, and the pedagogical significance of each aria is listed within each section. Study sheets are provided after each aria to list additional resources for countertenors and teachers with countertenors as students. It is the goal that any countertenor or male soprano can find usable repertoire in this guide. iv I dedicate this thesis to all of the music educators who encouraged me on my countertenor journey and who pushed me to find my own path in this field. v PREFACE One of the hardships while working on my Master of Music degree was determining the lack of resources available to countertenors. While there are opera repertoire books for sopranos, mezzo-sopranos, tenors, baritones, and basses, none is readily available for countertenors. Although there are online resources, it requires a great deal of research to verify the validity of those sources.

  • This History Is in Two Parts, the First Gives a Brief Background of St
    A History of St. Mary's Church : This history is in two parts, the first gives a brief background of St. Mary’s Catholic Church before it became a Catholic Church. The second part is a brief history of the Catholic Church on Whidbey Island and includes the purchase of St. Mary’s Church in 1934 and its subsequent history. CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH HISTORY Early in January, 1866, Mrs. Daniel Pearson, accompanied by her teenaged son and daughter, prepared to board the steamship CONTINENTAL in New York Harbor to make the trip around the tip of South America to the Washington Territory. They would be part of the Second Mercer Expedition. The First Mercer Expedition had sailed in 1864. Georgia and Josephine Pearson were members of that first group – they were called the “Mercer Girls”, and they came to teach school. Both sisters had jobs on Whidbey Island. They were chaperoned by their father, who had secured a job as the Lighthouse Keeper on Whidbey Island. He then sent for his wife and two teenagers. Mrs. Pearson and the children sailed on January 17, and they arrived in San Francisco on April 24, 1866. In a few days, they were sailing north on a smaller ship, landing on May 31, at Port Townsend, the port of entry for the Washington Territory at that time. On June 1, they sailed by ferry to Whidbey Island, coming ashore at Ebey’s Landing. As they climbed the bluff to their new home in the lighthouse, Flora Augusta Pearson, age 15, felt she was “one step from heaven.” And so, the Pearson family and other pioneer families settled Central Whidbey Island on “land donations.” Flora Pearson worked with her father as Assistant Lighthouse Keeper for eleven years.

  • Class 10: Between Reason and Romance
    Class 10: Between Reason and Romance A. William Blake and the Crisis of Faith 1. Title Slide 1 (Blake: Newton) 2. Phillips: William Blake (1807, London, National Portrait Gallery) I have shown pictures before by William Blake (1757–1827)—his Ezekiel in last week’s class, for instance. He keeps on cropping up whenever you look at the turn of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries, the passage from Reason to Romance. And yet he is difficult to fit into any continuity before or after: a maverick, a genius, a mystic, or simply a madman. I struggled a lot with the shape of today’s class, until I realize that it was this quality—Blake’s refusal to fit in—that made him such a perfect entry into what appears to have been a very troubled time. 3. Blake: “The Lamb,” video reading 4. Blake: “The Lamb” (1789, Library of Congress) Blake was a Christian—or at least he began as one. When looking at his early poetry collection, Songs of Innocence (1789), we might think of his faith as rather simplistic, as exemplified, for instance, in his poem “The Lamb.” The images in this video enhance the poem’s apparent naiveté, though hardly any more than Blake’s own hand-tinted engraving. Blake apprenticed as an engraver before studying at the Royal Academy; his work as a poet is entirely that of an amateur, though he published his poetry and art together as integrated artwork. 5. Blake: “The Tyger,” video reading by Tom O’Bedlam 6. Blake: “The Tyger,” detail (1795, British Museum) Blake followed up Songs of Innocence in 1794 with Songs of Experience, in which the naïve images are replaced by altogether more disturbing ones.
