THE VIRTUAL CONSTITUTION: The VPR Chorus and Soloists from the original Constitution cast are back at work under the direction of conductor Peter Szep and artistic director Judith Barnes, making videos of selected Articles and Amendments from Ben Yarmolinsky’s setting of the text of the United States Constitution, including those addressing Voting Rights, Treason, Cruel and Unusual Punishment and others. We’re also collaborating with the Grace Chorale under Jason Asbury to record the 5th and 6th Amendments with orchestra. More info coming soon! Fab photos courtesy of Chris Walker.
Last year, Judith Barnes' and Peter Szep's Opera Worskhop at the Brooklyn Music School was live onstage. This year, we are going virtual!
There are a few spots left in this wonderful immersion into opera performance. With masterclasses by the amazing Anthony Roth Costanzo, Francesca Mondanaro, Margi Sharp Douglas, Deborah Houston, and a core team of Judith, Peter, and Felix Jarrar, this is going to be a very rich experience. We have a few spots left and there are partial scholarships available as well. It starts Sept 14 and meets twice a week though Oct 15.
Singers, come and sing with us! Teacher friends, please let your talented students know about this opportunity!
