BWW Feature: ONLINE VIRTUAL OPERA TOUR at Home Computer Screens


Igor Stravinsky's
Oedipus Rex is available to stream now thru July 18th. Stravinsky based his opera
Oedipus Rex on the ancient Greek tragedy of the same name by Sophocles. Tour members watch it while enjoying an assortment of flaky Greek pastries, Ouzo, and retsina wine.
The 1927 opera,
Oedipus Rex, is a highly stylized, ritualistic work. In fact, the composer specifically requested that it be staged with minimal movement, which works well with COVID restrictions. Throughout the course of the opera, a narrator describes the action in English. Stravinsky set his work in Latin but specified that the narration is to be spoken in the language of the audience. The performance will feature incredibly imaginative projected animations created by Manual Cinema, an Emmy Award-winning performance collective, design studio and film/video production company. Music Director James Conlon conducts a stellar cast led by tenor Russell Thomas, LA Opera's Artist in Residence, as Oedipus, the doomed king. Mezzo-soprano J'Nai Bridges returns as Jocasta, his queen (and mother). Morris Robinson sings the role of Tiresias and Robert Stahley sings the role of the Shepherd. Legendary actor Stephen Fry makes his LA Opera debut as the Narrator in this legendary tale.

“We are indeed very fortunate to welcome the world-renowned maestro, Constantine Orbelian to the New York City Opera Family,” commented Mr. Capasso. “Maestro Orbelian brings decades of international experience conducting opera’s greatest stars both in performance and on award-winning recordings and will offer the company and its audiences many world-class performances in the future.

For more than a half-century, nearly every prominent singer to perform at New York City’s Metropolitan Opera could expect to be approached backstage afterward by a wispy woman in thick glasses, who held piles of memorabilia to be autographed while she praised their performance in a raspy Brooklyn accent.
That was Lois Kirschenbaum, one of New York’s biggest and longest-standing opera buffs and a nightly staple at the opera since the late 1950s, before Lincoln Center was built, when the Met was located in Midtown.

Famed Metropolitan Opera conductor James Levine dies at 77 - Netscape Entertainment


Famed Metropolitan Opera conductor James Levine dies at 77
By Will Dunham
Reuters
(Reuters) - James Levine, one of the world's most acclaimed conductors who served as music director for the Metropolitan Opera in New York for four decades before sexual abuse accusations prompted a messy exit, has died at age 77.
Dr. Len Horovitz, his personal physician, said Levine died on March 9 in Palm Springs, California, of "natural causes."
The maestro, known for his wild hair and bespectacled face, was long revered by the Met's audiences, singers and symphony-sized orchestra at America's cathedral of opera whose standards he helped place among the highest in the world.
