Synopsis On today's date in 1909, “The Golden Cockerel,” the last opera of the Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, had its premiere in Moscow. Rimsky-Korsakov had died the previous year, after a bitter battle with government censors who objected to the opera's thinly disguised satire against the bumbling administration of Czarist Russia. For the premiere, the censors won – the opera was performed with all the changes that Rimsky-Korsakov had so stubbornly resisted while alive. The original text was not restored until after the Russian revolution of 1917. Closer to our own time, in October of 1987, American composer John Adam's “Nixon in China,” debuted at Houston Grand Opera. Alice Goodman's libretto depicts the historic visit to Red China of President Nixon and then Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger. Adams says he was completely indifferent to what the real-life personages in his opera might have thought of it. No government censors objected, in any case, but Adams said that Richard Nixon's lawyer, Leonard Garment, did attend a performance of “Nixon in China,” and probably reported back to the former President. Nixon's reaction is not known – nor that of Henry Kissinger. We're happy to report, however, that according to John Adams, Leonard Garment did subsequently became something of a fan of his music. Music Played in Today's Program Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908): The Golden Cockerel Suite –Russian National Orchestra; Mikhail Pletnev, cond. (DG 447 084) John Adams (b. 1947): The Chairman Dances –San Francisco Symphony; Edo de Waart, cond. (Nonesuch 79453)

Nixon in China (1987), by John Adams, with libretto by Alice Goodman details President Nixon’s 1972 visit to China. The mixture of art, emotion, and politics makes Vince place this opera amongst his favourites. In this episode we discuss the cancel culture of today’s social media society, the portrayal of the political on stage, and the ways in which words and music were used in the 20th century to create dynamic modern theatre. Support the show (https://paypal.me/whatsmywhy?locale.x=en_US)

In honor of Presidents Day, we are rerunning not one, but TWO very presidential episodes of Classical Classroom. Originally, our discussion with AFA’s ‎executive and artistic director Michael Remson was so epic — spanning John Adams’ entire Nixon in China opera — that we divided it into two episodes. For your listening pleasure, we’ve merged the two episodes into one here. So, go get some apple pie, your whittling tools, and a glass of whiskey (this is how we imagine you listen to all Classical Classroom episodes) and settle in. In the first part of our conversation with composer, author, educator, and executive director of the American Festival for the Arts, Dr. Michael Remson, we cover Act 1 of Nixon in China:  world history, music history, and singing politicians. In Act 2, we meet the ladies. You don’t want to miss Mme. Mao yelling, opera-style.
