Blessed Art Thou Amongst Women

Wed, 27 Jun 2012 11:50:00 -0400

MY LATEST OPERATIC ADVENTURE!

I wrote the libretto for monodrama, THE WANTON SUBLIME, music by Tarik O’Regan. It is the centerpiece of the program.

ONE-ACT OPERAS MERGE WITH VIVALDI CLASSIC FOR THREE PORTRAITS OF MARY

AMERICAN OPERA PROJECTS PRESENTS NEW OPERA AT PRINCETON’S BERLIND THEATRE AS PART OF OPERA NEW JERSEY’s 2012 FESTIVAL SEASON. COMPOSERS GREGORY SPEARS, TARIK O’REGAN & LIBRETTIST ANNA RABINOWITZ JOIN PANEL DISCUSSION AFTER SHOWS.

New York, NY— On Saturday, July 21 at 2:00pm, and Sunday, July 22 at 7:30pm, American Opera Projects, in association with Opera New Jersey, will premiere Blessed Art Thou Amongst Women, an operatic meditation in three parts on the religious and feminine icon Mary with music by Tarik O’Regan, Gregory Spears, and Antonio Vivaldi and performed by countertenor Ryland Angel and mezzo-soprano Hai-Ting Chinn. The Sebastian Chamber Players and keyboardist Mila Henry perform under the musical direction of Steven Osgood, with stage direction by Crystal Manich. Performances will be held at the Berlind Theatre at Princeton’s McCarter Theatre Center and feature an artist panel discussion. Tickets are $15 and available at operanj.org or (609) 799-7700.

Blessed Art Thou Amongst Women consists of two contrasting contemporary monodramas - Gregory Spears’ Our Lady (from medieval Provençal texts) and Tarik O’Regan’s The Wanton Sublime (with a libretto by Anna Rabinowitz). The new works will be paired with a unique staged performance of Vivaldi’s Stabat Mater. The performances will mark the second partnership between AOP and Opera NJ, following last season’s exciting workshop premiere of The Family Room by Thomas Pasatieri.

Present Tense

This is the cover of my last book, designed by Chip Kidd. The book is slated to be transformed into a monodrama by American Opera Projects. Original music is being written by Tarik O’Regan, a rising star in the contemporary classical music world.
