Scott Parry, Director MSM Opera Theatre productions are made possible by the Fan Fox and Leslie R. Samuels Foundation and the Joseph F. McCrindle Endowment for Opera Productions at Manhattan School of Music. Friday, February 12, 2021 | 4 PM MANHATTAN SCHOOL OF MUSIC OPERA THEATRE Tazewell Thompson, Director of Opera Studies presents Connection/Separation Featuring arias and scenes from Carmen, Così fan tutte, Die Zauberflöte, La clemenza di Tito, L’elisir d’amore, Le nozze di Figaro, Les pêcheurs de perles, and Lucio Silla A. Scott Parry, Director Myra Huang, Vocal Coach & Pianist Kristen Kemp, Vocal Coach & Pianist Megan P. G. Kolpin, Props Coordinator DIRECTOR’S NOTE In each of our lives—during this last year especially—we may have discovered ourselves in moments of wanting, even needing some sort of human connection, but instead finding separation by any number of barriers. In the arias and scenes that follow, we witness characters in just this kind of moment; searching for meaningful contact yet being somehow barred from achieving it. Through circumstance, distance, convention, misunderstanding, pride, fear, ego, or what have you, we may find ourselves in situations similar to the characters in this program, while looking forward to the days when connection can be more easily achieved and separation the exception to the rule.

    News from Primo Artists | March 2017 View this email in your browser PERLMAN LEADS THE PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA WITH AN "INCREDIBLY DEFT TOUCH" AND IS SET TO TOUR WITH MARTHA ARGERICH IN MARCH 2018 On March 15th and 16th, Itzhak Perlman play/conducted concerts with the Philadelphia Orchestra to standing ovations and top praise from The Philadelphia Inquirer. “The Mozart work took on an emotional deliberation that suggested the late Nikolaus Harnoncourt. Clearly, Perlman – who conducts with a contained Ormandyesque beat – had worked on a series of attractively evolving textures in the symphony. Primary themes spoke with a highly inflected sense of purpose. In the Dvorak 8, Perlman gave a Viennese lilt to the mysterious waltz music of the third movement, which was an incredibly deft touch.” Primo announces the first-ever tour of Itzhak Perlman and Martha Argerich in the 2017-18 season! Two living legends reuniting for a tour of the United States, surely one for the records. March 2018. 6 concerts. 5 cities. Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Washington D.C. and New York.

  • Bibliography of Studies of Eighteenth-Century Journalism and the Periodical Press, 1986-2009
    Bibliography of Studies of Eighteenth-Century Journalism and the Periodical Press, 1986-2009 This bibliography surveys scholarship published from 1986 to 2009 on journalism, diverse serials (including almanacs), and the periodical press throughout the Europe and the Americas during the "long eighteenth century," approximately 1660-1820. It is most inclusive for the years 1990-2007, in consequence of my compiling studies of that period for Section 1--"Printing and Bibliographical Studies"--of the ECCB: Eighteenth-Century Current Bibliography, until recently known as The Eighteenth Century: A Current Bibliography. It focuses on printed publications, but a few electronic publications have been included. Dissertations and book reviews also are included. For suggestions and corrections, I am indebted to Professor James E. Tierney. In Spring 2003, I learned of many publications, particularly on German periodicals, from Mr. Harold Braem of Hildesheim, who has provided me with titles in his Historische Zeitungen: Privatarchiv der deutschsprachigen Presse des 17.-19. Jahrhunderts. Later, others, such as Marie Mercier-Faivre, Eric Francalanza, Rudj Gorian, and Charles A. Knight, have called attention to errors and overlooked studies. Of course, I am also indebted to many published bibliographies, most especially those by Diana Dixon published in inter-related annual serials: Journal of Newspaper and Periodical History (London, 1984-1994), Studies in Newspaper and Periodical History (Westport, CT: Greenwood, 1994-1997), Media History (1999-2002). I have also drawn upon Kim Martin Long's checklists in issues of American Periodicals, and various annual bibliographies dedicated to literature in specific languages, the most useful being MHRA's Annual Bibliography of English Language and Literature, with its inclusive chapter on periodicals.

It is most inclusive for the years 1990-2002, in consequence of my compiling studies of that period for Section 1--"Printing and Bibliographical Studies"--of The Eighteenth Century: A Current Bibliography). It focuses on printed publications, but a few electronic publications have been included. For suggestions and corrections, I am indebted to my friend James E. Tierney. In Spring 2003, I learned of many publications, particularly on German periodicals, from Mr. Harold Braem of Hildesheim, who has provided me with titles in his Historische Zeitungen: Privatarchiv der deutschsprachigen Presse des 17.-19. Jahrhunderts. Others, such as Marie Mercier-Faivre, Eric Francalanza, and Charles A. Knight have called attention to errors and overlooked studies. Of course, I am also indebted to many published bibliographies, most especially those by Diana Dixon published in inter-related annual serials: Journal of Newspaper and Periodical History (London, 1984- 1994), Studies in Newspaper and Periodical History (Westport, CT: Greenwood, 1994-1997), Media History (1999-2002). I have also drawn upon Kim Martin Long's checklists in recent issues of American Periodicals, and various annual bibliographies dedicated to literature in specific languages, the most useful being MHRA's Annual Bibliography of English Language and Literature, with its inclusive chapter on periodicals. I apologize for omissions and errors, and ask, for future revisions, that scholars please address corrections and additions to me at [email protected] or the postal address below.
