Swedish Debut at Royal Opera Stockholm with Handel's „Xerxes“
Press release Greek conductor George Petrou – Swedish debut at Royal Opera Stockholm with Handel’s „Xerxes“: 6. February 2015 Greek conductor George Petrou will be making his Swedish debut at the Royal Opera in Stockholm: On 6. February 2015 he will be conducting the revival of “Xerxes” by Georg Friedrich Handel. Katija Dragojevic will be heard in the titel role; other main characters will be represented by Susanna Stern (Romilda), Vivianne Holmberg (Atalante), Johanna Rudström (Arsamenes), Katarina Leoson (Amastris), John Erik Eleby (Ariodates) and Jens Persson (Elviro). The production was directed by Daniel Slater, stage design, costumes and mask by Robert Innes Hopkins. Further performances: 11., 14., 17., 24., 27. February and 3. March. George Petrou has been established as one of the world's leading Handel specialists. Many of his Handel-opera-recordings received important classical music awards like the French Diapason d’Or and Choc du monde de la musique as well as the German ECHO Klassik. For George Petrou “Xerxes” in Stockholm is also a premiere even though he has already conducted selected arias of the opera in the past: “Serse was a turning point in Handel's operatic output. It looked ahead into the future, breaking a great deal of the Opera seria conventions. Apparently it quite shocked the public with its novelty of structure and style, and it wasn't understood. However, it remains one of Handel's top creations.” “Xerxes” is one of the most frequently played operas by Handel. The plot unfolds as a comic rollercoaster of love, jealousy and secret desires in which nothing is quite as it seems. -
Season of Song 2010
Art Song Canberra Inc. www.artsongcanberra.org SEASON OF SONG 2010 In 2010 Art Song Canberra will present seven recitals of fine art song by an outstanding array of award-winning, highly-accomplished artists, many of them widely experienced on the world stage. Background Art Song Canberra is a dedicated group of volunteers and lovers of art song. It was founded as the A.C.T. Lieder Society in 1976 by a small group of devotees of art song led by Eleanor Houston OAM of Covent Garden fame. The society changed its name to Art Song Canberra in 2006. Its purpose is to foster and extend the love of art song. This is done mainly by: presenting high quality concerts to its members and the general public. The annual series is called the Season of Song; conducting an annual Festival of Song in which aspiring singers perform to an audience in a relatively relaxed and friendly environment and receive advice and encouragement from an acknowledged expert; providing opportunities for concert performance for dedicated and talented amateur singers. This format has met with considerable audience approval and Art Song Canberra has scheduled another such event in its Season of Song 2010; and conducting Members’ Soirées, social gatherings of members to sing and play together, taking us back to the origin of Lieder societies. The society presents a series of six or seven vocal recitals each year – the Season of Song. Most of the society‟s artists over the years have been have been highly accomplished both in Australia and internationally. Among the many artists who have performed for the society are such noted Australian singers as Eleanor Houston, Michael Martin, Sally-Anne Russell, Tobias Cole, Warwick Fyfe, Christopher Allan, Angela Giblin, Louise Page and Christina Wilson as well as Susan Burghardt from the USA and Thomas Weinhappel from Vienna. -

Walking in His Steps Introduction
Caption Walking In His Steps A 40-Day Journey By Joe Pettigrew, Ph.D. Walking In His Steps We are living in a lonely and challenging time. Christians are trying to figure out their new normal regarding Bible studies, attending Church activities, and how they can continue to grow their faith. Some churches have continued with in-person Bible studies, while most focus on internet studies and meeting through Zoom. There is a great need today for Bible relevant studies that can be used in person or via the internet to bring people together. There has never been a time where Christians needed to communicate with one another more. Today’s complex issues are calling Christians back to the basics of their faith. A practical study emphasizing current problems and issues and how they relate to their faith are being sought. While there are many outstanding studies on the Disciples' life or highlighting individual Biblical characters, the current demand is for studies that will help Christians with the current issues they are experiencing. They want to live a life that will lead people to Christ; however, they are looking for what the Word says about today's issues. Walking In His Steps is more than a book; it guides a 40-day journey to living a life sold out to Jesus Christ. This study will enable readers to understand and discuss what Jesus expects from us as we deal with many of life’s most important questions. By the end of Walking In His Steps, readers will desire to continue to study God’s Word and invite their friends to share in this relevant study. -

Marie Collier: a Life
Marie Collier: a life Kim Kemmis A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History The University of Sydney 2018 Figure 1. Publicity photo: the housewife diva, 3 July 1965 (Alamy) i Abstract The Australian soprano Marie Collier (1927-1971) is generally remembered for two things: for her performance of the title role in Puccini’s Tosca, especially when she replaced the controversial singer Maria Callas at late notice in 1965; and her tragic death in a fall from a window at the age of forty-four. The focus on Tosca, and the mythology that has grown around the manner of her death, have obscured Collier’s considerable achievements. She sang traditional repertoire with great success in the major opera houses of Europe, North and South America and Australia, and became celebrated for her pioneering performances of twentieth-century works now regularly performed alongside the traditional canon. Collier’s experiences reveal much about post-World War II Australian identity and cultural values, about the ways in which the making of opera changed throughout the world in the 1950s and 1960s, and how women negotiated their changing status and prospects through that period. She exercised her profession in an era when the opera industry became globalised, creating and controlling an image of herself as the ‘housewife-diva’, maintaining her identity as an Australian artist on the international scene, and developing a successful career at the highest level of her artform while creating a fulfilling home life. This study considers the circumstances and mythology of Marie Collier’s death, but more importantly shows her as a woman of the mid-twentieth century navigating the professional and personal spheres to achieve her vision of a life that included art, work and family. -

BIO Julia Lezhneva
Julia Lezhneva, Soprano The young Russian soprano Julia Lezhneva has been described as possessing a voice of “angelic beauty”, “pure tone” and “flawless technique”. Born into a family of geophysicists on Sakhalin Island in 1989, she began playing the piano and singing at the age of five. After graduating from the Gretchaninov Music School, she continued her vocal and piano studies at the Moscow Conservatory Academic Music College. At the age of 17 she came to international attention winning the Elena Obraztsova International Competition, and at 18 she shared the concert stage with Juan Diego Flórez at the opening of the Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro under Alberto Zedda. In 2008 she began studying with tenor Dennis O’Neill in Cardiff, supported by the Kempinski Arts Fellowship Programme and then completed her training under Yvonne Kenny at London’s Guildhall School. In 2009 she won first prize at the Mirjam Helin International Singing Competition in Helsinki and the following year took first prize at the Paris International Opera Competition, the youngest entrant in each competition’s history. In 2010, Julia Lezhneva created a sensation at the Classical Brit awards at London’s Royal Albert Hall, singing Rossini’s Fra il padre upon the invitation of Dame Kiri Te Kanawa. In Her stage and concert appearances in 2010-2011 have included the Brussels and Berlin State operas, the Mostly Mozart festival, the Cleveland Orchestra, Les Musiciens du Louvre and Il Giardino Armonico & Europa Galante during the European concert tours. 2011, Opernwelt named her “Young Singer of the Year” for her debut at La Monnaie in Brussels. -
