Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra Concert: Mahler Symphony No. 2 |
|
The Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (BPYO), comprised of some of the Northeast’s top musicians age 12-21, closes its 2022-23 Boston season on a grand scale with Mahler’s Symphony No. 2 (Resurrection) on Wednesday, May 3, 2023, at 8:00 PM at Symphony Hall, conducted by Maestro Benjamin Zander. Two extraordinary vocalists perform as soloists—soprano Maria Brea, making her Boston debut, and mezzo-soprano Jennifer Johnson Cano—in addition to Chorus pro Musica. A live stream is also available for those who are unable to attend in person.
The 80-minute-long Resurrection Symphony—so-called because of its view of the splendor of the afterlife—starts by laying the Titan, the hero of Mahler’s First Symphony, to rest with a funeral march. The rest of the symphony builds a new pathway to hope and ultimate affirmation, while also recognizing the world’s absurdity amidst its incredible beauty. |

On May 5, for the opening night of Long Play 2023 at Brooklyn's Pioneer Works, MEMORY GAME is Meredith Monk and her celebrated Vocal Ensemble, including Theo Bleckmann, Katie Geissinger, and Allison Sniffin, plus our very own Bang on a Can All-Stars.
As its title implies, MEMORY GAME is both a look back at a pivotal point in Meredith Monk's storied career, and a richly layered portrait of how vocal music, under the guidance of an indefatigable master, can play with our expectations in poignant and compelling ways.
Not only is this concert (co-presentated with The Town Hall) the first-ever New York performance of MEMORY GAME; May 5th will also be Meredith Monk's only New York City concert in her 80th Birthday Year! It's the perfect opening to Long Play 2023, a three-day supercharged musical ride through right now. |

The Bronx Opera presents four performances of Poulenc's tragedy "Dialogues of the Carmelites," May 6 & 13 at 7:30 PM, and May 7 & 14 at 2:30 PM. As always, The Bronx Opera will perform in English, which is especially fitting as Poulenc's desire was to see Carmelites performed in the vernacular of its local audience. Two casts, with principal roles taken by Barbee Monk and Alina Tamborini as Blanche de la Force; Hannah Spierman and Michelle Trovato as Madame Lidoine; Annie Chester and Caroline Tye as Mother Marie of the Incarnation; and Tiernan Elizabeth Chase and Sarah Daniels as Sister Constance. |
