SUMMARY:Jazz Songtress - Cécile McLorin Salvant
DESCRIPTION:Poised. Radiant. Captivating. The words of praise for young Cécile McLorin Salvant far outstrip her years of experience – a testament to her studied\, stunning command of blues\, jazz\, and classical vocabularies. Born in Miami to a French mother and a Haitian father\, Salvant immersed herself in music from age five\, eventually honing her vocal chops in Aix-en-Provence\, France. It’s only fitting that an artist of such unique origins would conclude the winding musical journey that is the Rialto Series\, ending the season in Atlanta on a beautiful\, high note.

SUMMARY:A Note on Opera: Richard Wagner's "Tristan und Isolde"
DESCRIPTION:Join Goethe for their latest lecture in their “A Note on Opera” series as they look at Richard Wagner’s “Tristan und Isolde.”\n Based on various Celtic legends\, including the tales of King Arthur\, Wagner’s opera is a radical departure from all previous operas\, both his and anyone else’s. Its sound is so modern than it belies the fact of it being composed in the early 1860s! With “Tristan\,” Wagner changed the sound of music forever. The story of doomed lovers whose passion defies all rules is perfectly realized in Wagner’s score\, a continuous melodic development that fails to reach resolution until the inevitable tragic conclusion. \nCourse to be taught in English by David Kerr. No pre-existing knowledge of music required. \nPlease use the link to register in advance for this lecture.
