  • Northern Ireland Tour March 21 – 26
    WILLIAM WALTON An extravaganza in One Act based on the play by Anton Chekhov Northern Ireland Tour March 21 – 26 “There’s a real buzz and sense of purpose about what this company is doing” ~ The Guardian Welcome Welcome to this evening’s performance of The Bear. Tonight’s programme showcases not only a rarely performed jewel of an opera, but also brings to Northern Ireland three wonderful singers who are making a real name for themselves on the world stage. Anna Burford and Andrew Rupp are performing with NI Opera for the first time following recent engagements at the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, and English National Opera. Those of you who saw our production of Tosca back in 2011 will remember John Molloy who sang the roles of Angelotti and Sciarrone then, and sings the role of Luka tonight. We are also delighted that some of Northern Ireland’s finest choirs are appearing in the first part of tonight’s programme, singing a selection of George Shearing’s beautiful Songs and Sonnets from Shakespeare. The combination of Northern Irish talent, internationally-renowned singers and innovative programming has been highly evident throughout our 2012/13 season, which draws to a close with this tour. From commissioning exciting new short operas from leading Irish composers and playwrights, to performing a children’s opera in Belfast Zoo and at the Beijing Music Festival, to bringing a home grown production of a Wagner opera to the Belfast stage for the first time ever, this has certainly been a year to remember. 2012/13 has also seen NI Opera make its debuts at the prestigious Buxton Festival and in the Irish Republic, whilst our programmes for nurturing the best young Irish talent – particularly our Young Artists’ Programme and our annual Festival of Voice in Glenarm – continue to prosper.

  • Ii the Interpretation of Opera Excerpts for Bassoon
    The Interpretation of Opera Excerpts for Bassoon: A Pedagogical Analysis of Selected Excerpts D.M.A Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Erik Soren Malmer, M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2019 D.M.A. Document Committee Professor Karen Pierson, Advisor Doctor Arved Ashby Professor Katherine Borst Jones Professor Robert Sorton ii Copyrighted by Erik Soren Malmer 2019 iii Abstract Although opera presents a sizeable portion of classical music, many bassoonists are oblivious of opera literature. Besides the Marriage of Figaro many bassoonists are blithely unaware of the excerpts on opera bassoon audition lists. This document attempts to introduce and analyze the most popular opera excerpts for principal and second bassoon. Thirty-four opera companies were contacted in an effort to obtain the most accurate listing of opera bassoon excerpts. This document intends to enlighten the reader on a pedagogical approach to opera bassoon excerpts through the history of the composition, a synopsis of the opera, and a pedagogical approach to each excerpt. ii Acknowledgments I wish to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation to my advisor, Professor Karen Pierson. She has helped me grow immensely as a bassoonist and a human over the course of my studies and no amount of thanks can repay her for all of the support. I would like to thank the members of my doctoral committee, Dr. Arved Ashby, Professor Katherine Borst Jones, and Professor Robert Sorton for time and support of my studies at The Ohio State University.

  • Over 100 Opera Makers
    #OPERAHARMONY CREATING OPERAS IN ISOLATION 1 3 WELCOME TO #OPERA HARMONY FROM FOUNDER – ELLA MARCHMENT Welcome to #OperaHarmony. #Opera Harmony is a collection of opera makers from across the world who, during this time of crisis, formed an online community to create new operas. I started this initiative when the show that I was rehearsing at Dutch National Opera was cancelled because of the lockdown. Using social media and online platforms I invited colleagues worldwide to join me in the immense technical and logistical challenge of creating new works online. I set the themes of ‘distance’ and ‘community’, organised artist teams, and since March have been overseeing the creation of twenty new operas. All the artists involved in #OperaHarmony are highly skilled professionals who typically apply their talents in creating live theatre performances. Through this project, they have had to adapt to working in a new medium, as well as embracing new technologies and novel ways of creating, producing, and sharing work. #OperaHarmony’s goal was to bring people together in ways that were unimaginable prior to Covid-19. Over 100 artists from all the opera disciplines have collaborated to write, stage, record, and produce the new operas. The pieces encapsulate an incredibly dark period for the arts, and they are a symbol of the unstoppable determination, and community that exists to perform and continue to create operatic works. This has been my saving grace throughout lockdown, and it has given all involved a sense of purpose. When we started building these works we had no idea how they would eventually be realised, and it is with great thanks that we acknowledge the support of Opera Vision in helping to both distribute and disseminate these pieces, and also for establishing a means in which audiences can be invited into the heart of the process too .

  • Intermedial Modernism: Music, Dance, and Sound
    Intermedial Modernism: Music, Dance, and Sound Patrick Milian A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2019 Reading Committee: Leroy Searle, Chair Sydney Kaplan Brian Reed Program Authorized to Offer Degree: English ©Copyright 2019 Patrick Milian University of Washington Abstract Intermedial Modernism: Music, Dance, and Sound Patrick Milian Chair of Supervisory Committee: Leroy Searle English Intermedial Modernism: Music, Dance, and Sound examines how twentieth-century combinations of literature with sound-based arts like music, dance, and radio emerged from aesthetic negotiations with new media technologies. Such technologies—specifically phonography, electric amplification, modern stagecraft, and radiophonic broadcast—practically and conceptually integrated multiple artistic mediums and their meaning-making potentialities. I use the framework of intermediality, especially as utilized in word and music studies, to describe such integrations. Intermediality is a centuries-old practice of “making it new,” but what sets its twentieth-century iterations apart from those of Aeschylus or Monteverdi, I argue, is that they interpolate the acoustic effects, cultural practices, and expanded perceptual vocabularies affiliated with new media. By fully contextualizing case studies of opera, musicalized literature, expressive dance, and radio programs within a broader media ecology and by understanding the role of stipulated sense modalities and listening practices,
