News Forfriends 63RD FESTIVAL | 22 OCTOBER – 2 NOVEMBER 2014 News for Friends PRIORITY BOOKING FOR FRIENDS OPENS 1 MARCH 2014 This is Wexford… ‘Opera did not help me to improve my social situation, nor did it enrich my experiences as a tourist. It was more serious than that. It simply entered my spirit and it lingered there and it became powerful. It offered me a relationship to soaring beauty, to the idea that there was a world beyond the visible world. It suggested mystery, as human relations are filled with mystery, as light is filled with mystery, as sound is filled with mystery. It paved the way for a life lived more sonorously, a life open to possibility and otherness and strangeness.’ (Colm Tóibín) From the Artistic Director Dear Friends, This year, the 63rd season of Wexford Festival Opera, is my tenth as Artistic Director. What an invigorating ten years it has been! We have performed thirty-one operas at ten Festivals in four venues (the Theatre Royal, Dún Mhuire, Johnstown Castle and the Opera House) and twenty-six ShortWorks productions. We have created our own Wexford Festival Opera Orchestra and Chorus of which we are justifiably proud. Oh, and we have built a new opera house!

Sounding Nostalgia In Post-World War I Paris Abstract In the years that immediately followed the Armistice of November 11, 1918, Paris was at a turning point in its history: the aftermath of the Great War overlapped with the early stages of what is commonly perceived as a decade of rejuvenation. This transitional period was marked by tension between the preservation (and reconstruction) of a certain prewar heritage and the negation of that heritage through a series of social and cultural innovations. In this dissertation, I examine the intricate role that nostalgia played across various conflicting experiences of sound and music in the cultural institutions and popular media of the city of Paris during that transition to peace, around 1919-1920. I show how artists understood nostalgia as an affective concept and how they employed it as a creative resource that served multiple personal, social, cultural, and national functions. Rather than using the term “nostalgia” as a mere diagnosis of temporal longing, I revert to the capricious definitions of the early twentieth century in order to propose a notion of nostalgia as a set of interconnected forms of longing.

Storey writes that he has been unwell and has gone to Brighton to recover. He explains that he has written to a friend in Oxford who will look at Pan and get the information Millard wants, noting that he was not well enough to go to the Bodleian before he left Oxford but will write again when he hears more. He also writes that he has something to send to Millard and that he recently read Millard’s letter about Oscar Wilde’s letters [the title of the publication not deciphered] and that he bought one of Wilde’s letters two years ago and, although he sold it, kept a copy which he asks if Millard would like to see. He concludes by sympathising with Millard over his financial situation and explaining that he too has yet to make his fortune, noting that his partnership was the ‘biggest trouble of my life’ [the name of Storey’s partner could not be deciphered].

    Media Release For immediate release: March 9, 2016 Contact: Edward Wilensky, Director of Media Relations [email protected] 619.232.7636 Cast Change Announcement Mezzo-soprano Kate Aldrich to sing the role of Arden Scott in the West Coast Premiere of Great Scott San Diego, CA – Mezzo-soprano Kate Aldrich will sing the role of Arden Scott in the West Coast premiere of Jake Heggie and Terrence McNally’s new opera, Great Scott, directed by Jack O’Brien. Kate Aldrich replaces mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard who withdrew, after having decided to not add the role to her repertory at this point in time. Ms. Aldrich made her Company debut in 2008 as Elizabeth in Donizetti’s Maria Stuarda. Great Scott opens on Saturday, May 7, 2016 and tells the story of Arden Scott, a modern day woman and opera diva. Arden returns to her hometown for the first time since becoming an international opera star, to help save her home opera company run by her mentor. The struggle of a make-or-break opera premiere is juxtaposed with the thriving Grizzlies, the home football team appearing in the Super Bowl, both happening on the same evening. Arden Scott must face the demons she left behind and the ones she lives with daily. Does disaster await her or perhaps there is hope and success on the horizon? About Kate Aldrich Hailed by the San Francisco Sentinel as “the Carmen of this Generation” after her debut with the San Francisco Opera in 2006, American mezzo-soprano Kate Aldrich has also performed the title role of Bizet’s opera to much critical acclaim in theatres such as the Bavarian State Opera Munich, Deutsche Oper Berlin, Arena di Verona and many others.
