Gian Carlo Menotti
Lasting legacy
Menotti’s vision still inspires Spoleto Festival, while Piccolo spotlights favorites, new events
bthompson@postandcourier.com
Talent, and foresight, echo across time. The 35th annual Spoleto Festival USA and 33rd Piccolo Spoleto Festival are living rebuttals to the notion that when artists die, part of their vision of the world dies with them. It need not be so. It is certainly not true of the music — or the legacy — of the late composer and librettist Gian Carlo Menotti, festival founder and continuing inspiration. Emphasizing the importance of honoring Menotti on the centennial of his birth, Spoleto will present a new production of the maestro’s “The Medium,” one of three operas to be presented during the festival run (May 27-June 12). “It’s always hard to choose any particular aspect of the festival that is most important,” says festival General Director Nigel Redden. “The brilliance of Menotti’s idea that all the performing arts excel when they are held next to each other, with each reinforcing the next. His concept of the festival is his primary legacy. “And even though this new production of ‘The Medium’ will be a departure from the way he developed the opera, it will give insight into his thinking at the time, and into the situation in the world in 1946, when it was first staged.” Directed and designed by John Pascoe with Joseph Flummerfelt conducting, “The Medium” will enjoy six performances beginning May 28 in the Dock Street Theatre. It is joined in a triumvirate of operas by Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho’s “Emilie” and Mozart’s “The Magic

Flute,” the latter to be directed by Moshe Leiser and Patrice Caurier and conducted by Steven Sloane. “Emilie” is an homage to Enlightenment Age figure Emilie du Chatelet, and will showcase soprano Elizabeth Futral in the title role, with Marianne Weems directing and John Kennedy conducting this American premiere. Saariaho, recently appointed Carnegie Hall’s composer in residence for 201112, will be in Charleston for the opening performance of “Emilie” on May 29 in Memminger Auditorium. “The Magic Flute,” which will be presented in eight performances May 27-June 11 at the Sottile Theatre, will feature the U.S. debut of the young Swiss tenor Fabio Trumpy in the role of Tamino. Other festival highlights include the theater productions of “The Cripple of Inishmaan” and “The Red Shoes,” the music theater production of “The Gospel at Colonus” (a meld of Greek tragedy and African-American gospel music), performances of the Corella Ballet of Spain, the contemporary circus Circa out of Brisbane, Australia, the annual Festival Concert featuring conductor James Gaffigan and the Spoleto Festival USA orchestra, the popular late-afternoon Intermezzi concerts at Grace Episcopal Church, young bluegrass sensation Sarah Jarosz, the Wells Fargo Jazz series and the Festival
Finale, which will train its spotlight on the Del McCoury Band. Contemporary composer Osvaldo Golijov, the Chamber Music Series composer-in-residence, also will be in the city May 26-June 2.
Piccolo Spoleto
Piccolo Spoleto, the official outreach arm of the Spoleto Festival, enters its 33rd year reprising many of its most popular offerings, as well as the Spotlight Special Event “From Athletes to Artists,” featuring former Citadel football players Dr. Tony Cicoria and Morris Robinson. Pianist Cicoria (Class of 1974) and opera singer Robinson (1991), both of whom won first-team All-Southern Conference honors as linemen, return to their alma mater for a concert June 5. They came to music via very different paths. Cicoria, an orthopedic surgeon in Norwich, N.Y., was struck by lightning in 1994. Having had no prior musical background, he says that he developed an “insatiable desire” to listen to piano music and proceeded to learn to play. Today, Cicoria is a celebrated concert pianist. For his part, Robinson has earned a place among the most sought-after operatic basses. A graduate of the Metropolitan Opera Lindemann Young
Artist Development Program, he made his debut in the Metropolitan Opera production of “Fidelio.” Cicoria and Robinson will appear on campus at McAlister Field House with the Piccolo Spoleto Festival Orchestra, conducted by Donald Portnoy. “ ‘Athletes to Artists’ is one of the most unique things we’ve ever done,” says Ellen Dressler Moryl of the city of Charleston Office of Cultural Affairs. “The finale is definitely a highlight as well, as is the ‘Sunset Serenade’ with the Charleston Symphony Orchestra and Charleston Ballet performing together and setting the tone of classical art. “This illustrates how, for 33 years, we have been offering something for everybody — a very broad spectrum of events.” The annual pops concert, “Sunset Serenade,” at the U.S. Customhouse, will feature the CSO and Piccolo Spoleto Festival Orchestra playing works celebrating the best of Hollywood and the New York stage, ranging form “West Side Story” to “Schindler’s List.” The centerpiece of the program is Charleston Ballet Theatre’s “Wings” (music by Ernest Bloch) and “The Lark Ascending” (music by Vaughan Williams), choreographed by Jill Eathorne Bahr. Some of Charleston’s leading classical musicians compose the Ensemble of St. Clare, which will perform Albinoni’s “San Marco Trumpet Concerto,” Bach’s “Brandenburg Concerto No. 5” and Vivaldi’s “The Four Seasons” on May 30 at Mepkin Abbey. For the closing act, Motown Madness returns to Hampton Park for the Piccolo Finale on June 11, with classic hits interpreted by the CSO. Reach Bill Thompson at 937-5707.
