In the Spotlight

Maestro Riccardo Muti

From the Chicago Symphony: Modern American, Viennese Classic American composer William Schuman’s Symphony No. 9, subtitled Le Fosse Ardeatine, or The Ardeatine Caves, commemorates a Nazi atrocity of 1944, in which hundreds of Italians were murdered in caves outside Rome. At one of last year’s CSO subscription concerts, music director Riccardo Muti paired the work with Mozart’s final masterpiece, the Requiem in D Minor. The program reveals Muti’s commitment to sending messages of peace and reconciliation through music. For the Mozart, the CSO Chorus and vocal soloists Benedetta Torre, Sara Mingardo, Siamir Pirgu, and Mika Kares are featured along with the orchestra. Sunday, July 12 8:00 pm

Dmitry Korchak

From Lyric Opera of Chicago: Gluck’s Orphee Opening night of Lyric Opera’s 2017- 18 season marked the first full-scale collaboration between the company and its new resident dance ensemble, the Joffrey Ballet. Christoph Willibald Gluck’s most famous opera, whose English title is Orpheus and Eurydice, exists in a couple of different versions; the version he constructed for performance in Paris has extensive ballet elements. At Lyric, the setting for the ancient mythological tale was updated to a modern dance studio, outside of which Eurydice is killed in a car accident. Her griefstricken husband is encouraged by the character Amour (Love) to seek her in the underworld, and it is in the Hades and Elysian Fields scenes that the Joffrey dancers come to the fore. The Russian tenor Dmitry Korchak portrays Orphee, and Andriana Chuchman, a Ryan Opera Center alumna, both sings and dances Eurydice. Concurrently with the program, check out some of the dance scenes on our website. Saturday, July 18 12:00 pm

Conrad Tao

Best of the Grant Park Music Festival From summer 2019, hear Fiesta by Jimmy Lopez and Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No. 2 with youthful pianist Conrad Tao as the soloist (from summer 2019). From 2014 comes a performance featuring members of Lyric’s Ryan Opera Center, in Cabaret Songs by William Bolcom, that year’s Grant Park composer-in-residence. And there’s a novelty by Andrew Norman: Drip, Blip, Sparkle, Spin, Glint, Glide, Glow, Float, Flop, Chop, Pop, Shatter, Splash. Our final July offering from Grant Park begins with Danzas Fantasticas by Joaquin Turina and continues with guitarist Pablo Sainz Villegas (from 2017) playing Joaquin Rodrigo’s Fantasia para un Gentilhombre, a concerto written for the legendary Andres Segovia. Finally, we’ll hear the Bachianas Brasileiras No. 7 by Brazil’s Heitor Villa-Lobos, composed in 1942 and featuring, like the other works in the composer’s sequence of Bach tributes, movement titles that Bach himself often used: Prelude, Gigue, Toccata, and Fugue.

Rich Warren

The Midnight Special: Farewell to Rich Warren Rich became a co-host of WFMT’s Midnight Special folk and comedy show in 1983, taking over as sole host in 1996. Since then, he has not missed a single Saturday evening, having presented a wide array of singer-songwriters, classic folk artists, some pop, many novelties, and plenty of comic sketches, in the tradition of Mike Nichols, Ray Nordstrand, and Norm Pellegrini. Beginning August 1, folk-music maven and radio host Marilyn Rea Beyer will take over from Rich; however, Rich will continue to host Folkstage at 8:00 pm. Rich hasn’t fully decided what he’ll play on his last show, but it will be “something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue,” drawing on a legacy of experience that extends back to 1968, when his University of Illinois show called Changes was conceived as a tribute to The Midnight Special.

Lawrence Brownlee

From Lyric Opera of Chicago: Bellini’s I Puritani During the short lifetime (1801-1835) of Vincenzo Bellini, his operas almost always engendered good public and critical reaction, and his music was much admired even by such rivals as Gaetano Donizetti. His final success was I Puritani, which Lyric Opera of Chicago presented as part of its 2017-18 season. Set in 17th-century England during the country’s civil war between Puritans and Royalists, the opera stars soprano Albina Shagimuratova as Elvira, from a Puritan family, and tenor Lawrence Brownlee as her lover, Arturo, from the Royalist side (also known as Cavaliers). The opera contains a spectacular mad scene for the soprano, but that is not followed by tragedy; the plot has a happy ending. Enrique Mazzola, Lyric’s recently named music director, conducts.
