SUMMARY:Under Midwestern Skies: Argento & His Students
DESCRIPTION:Minnesota Opera continues to celebrate the music of Dominick Argento at the centenary of his birth and his legacy both as a co-founder of the Center Opera Company in 1963\, now known as Minnesota Opera\, and educator for the next generation of composers. \nA prolific composer in his own right\, Argento’s musical influence extends beyond his own works to those of his students\, many of whom also chose to make Minnesota their home. Led by Chorus Director Celeste Marie Johnson\, the Minnesota Opera Chorus celebrates their compositions alongside Argento’s\, featuring music by Libby Larsen\, David Evan Thomas\, Juliana Hall\, and Stephen Paulus. Many of the poets on the program are also native Minnesotans\, and their words help paint the landscape that holds a unique place in these composers’ hearts. \nGenerously sponsored in part by Gale Sharpe in gratitude for Vern Sutton who sang Dominick’s notes so beautifully.

SUMMARY:Canciones argentinas y mexicanas: Octavio Moreno sings Guastavino & Grever
DESCRIPTION:Baritone Octavio Moreno (Cruzar la Cara de la Luna) will perform a specially curated concert of songs by Carlos Guastavino and María Grever with Mario Antonio Marra (Head of Music\, Director of Resident Artist Program) at the piano. \nArgentine composer Carlos Guastavino wrote around 150 songs for voice and piano\, each reflecting his love of popular musical idioms and folksong and dances. While he wrote instrumental music extensively\, singers in particular were drawn to his melodic writing and the heart so readily accessible in his music. \nMexican composer María Grever wrote over 800 songs\, many of which became popular in both Latin America and the United States\, and many of which marry her love of American jazz with Mexico’s rich musical traditions. Her 1934 hit “Cuando vuelva a tu lado” (later transliterated to “What a difference a day makes”) enshrined her artistic legacy and her compositions have been performed by vocal legends ranging from Enrico Caruso and Frank Sinatra to Aretha Franklin and Gloria Estefan.
