New song festival on Sag Harbor
NewsMy friend Lena Kaplan, widow of the Mahler conductor Gil Kaplan, has put together a festival of rising American singers next month at the village of Sag Harbor, near East Hampton.
High calibre voices and rep under the direction of Santa Fe Opera’s Brad Woolwright.
Perfect for talent spotters.
Details here.
This is absolutely wonderful news!
About 30 years ago I spoke with the donors of PianoFest-opera people fundamentally- out in that neck of the woods and was told there was little interest in voice out there.
It’s wonderful that Lena, Brad and Bob have created this. Long may it thrive!
Since when is an aria (of which there are many featured here) a song?
