STERN AUDITORIUM/PERELMAN STAGE, CARNEGIE HALL



THE GRAPES OF WRATH
March 22, 2010 at 8:00pm
Carnegie Hall


An all-star cast from opera and Broadway comes together to present the World Premiere Two Act Concert Version of Ricky Ian Gordon and Michael Korie’s beautiful rendering of Nobel Prize-winner John Steinbeck’s epic Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, "The Grapes of Wrath", on March 22, 2010 at Carnegie Hall, conducted by Ted Sperling. Called by Musical America “The great American opera,” Gordon’s opera incorporates American popular musical styles of the 20s and 30s: song-and-dance, sweet and rousing love songs, ballads with banjos, jazz choruses, and a barbershop quartet. Just like the novel itself, the work is both heart-wrenching and uplifting. Gordon (music) and Korie (libretto) have collaborated with The Chorale to shorten the length of the original opera, while composing new material for the chorus. And if that starry cast – Victoria Clark, Christine Ebersole, Jane Fonda, Elizabeth Futral, Anthony Dean Griffey, Nathan Gunn, Peter Halverson, Steven Pasquale, Stephen Powell, Andrew Wilkowske and Matthew Worth – isn’t enough inspiration to see the show, the role of Tom Joad’s young daughter, Ruthie, will be sung by Nathan Gunn’s daughter, Madeline Gunn. Directed by Eric Simonson with lighting design by Frances Aronson. Tickets are $25-$160 and will be available at 646-202-9623 or www.collegiatechorale.org.

Subscription packages are available by phone at 646-202-9623 or online at www.collegiatechorale.org.

ISRAEL IN EGYPT
May 12, 2010 at 8:00pm
Skirball Center for the Performing Arts, New York University


James Bagwell will conduct George F. Handel’s "Israel in Egypt", featuring Brian Asawa, alto; Sari Gruber, soprano; and Rufus Müller, tenor on May 12, 2010 at 8pm at the Skirball Center for the Performing Arts, New York University. Darkness over the earth, water turning to blood, plagues of jumping frogs, buzzing insects, and hailstones, an oncoming mighty storm, and the parting of the Red Sea while hordes of horsemen and chariots are engulfed – such imagery calls for the masterful hand of George F. Handel. In this choral tour de force, some of the most vivid images of the Exodus story are recounted during the first segment, which is then followed by the beautiful and exultant second part, "The Song of Moses". At times tender, simple, stately, crashing, complex and colossal, "Israel in Egypt" is one of Handel’s monumental achievements, featuring the chorus in an unprecedented way with lovely and descriptive solos and duets accentuating their story throughout.

Tickets are $25-$85 and will be available online at www.skirballcenter.nyu.edu, by phone at 212-352-3101, or in person at the Skirball Center Shagan Box Office 566 LaGuardia Place, Tuesday-Saturday 12-6pm.
