SAS Performing Arts - CINDERELLA in concert

Sunday, February 12, 2023 - 3:00pm
Everyone
is familiar with the story of Cinderella, immortalized by the French
author Charles Perrault. Yet this is not quite the story of the Rossini
version of Cinderella. There are the wicked stepsisters, there is a
wicked Stepfather and, instead of a fairy godmother, Rossini gives us a
mysterious man who seems to have magical powers. The voices sparkle,
flow forth, and mingle in arias and ensembles punctuated with clever puns
and witticisms: this is Rossini’s musical comedy at its finest, which he
wrote when he was only 24 in just three weeks. There is certainly some
magic in that! Sung in Italian.

The New York Virtuoso Singers - American Invention

Sunday, February 19, 2023 - 3:00pm
The New York Virtuoso Singers conducted by Harold Rosenbaum present American Invention, featuring vibrant American choral music from the 18th century to today. The concert will comprise a wide range of American works including world premieres by Pulitzer Prize winner Anthony Davis, Peter Zummo, Elena Ruehr, and William McClelland; New York premieres by Pulitzer Prize winner Tania León and David Patterson; music by other outstanding American composers, including Florence Price, Annea Lockwood, Jessie Montgomery, Mari Esabel Valverde, Nancy Wertsch, and Edie Hill, and 18th, 19th and 20th century choral works by William Billings, Lowell Mason, Charles Ives, Milton Babbitt, plus an arrangement by William Appling.
The program embraces the inventive and adventurous spirit that has been part of American music's DNA since William Billings, the country's first great native-born composer, published his first collection, "The New-England Psalm-Singer," in 1770. This spirit infused the pioneering work of Charles Ives, one of the towering figures of 20th century music, the innovations in electronic and serial music by Milton Babbitt, and the musical explorations by many of the contemporary composers on this program. At the same time, the works do not sacrifice feeling and beauty for mere originality, and there are many moving, joyful and uplifting compositions that will be performed.
Tickets are $20 (students: $10) and may be purchased at the door, or at this link.
