From 2012- In another followup to Thursday's program, which featured a reunion of young men who had performed the title role of Menotti's Christmas opera "Amahl and the Night Visitors" with the Choral Arts Society over the years, we replay the 2012 interview with Nathan Engstrom, recorded just before he undertook the role. Also in the interview is his father, Steve Engstrom, along with conductor James Schatzman.

In a follow-up to yesterday's Amahl reunion, we replay a 2002 conversation with one of those past Amahls - Michael Weideberg - along with Beth Bush, who portrayed his mother in that production, and Jeri Smith, who was the producer of the production.

From 2017 - a preview of what was a very special performance of Gian Carlo Menotti's Christmas opera "Amahl and the Night Visitors" by the Choral Arts Society - in which three past performers of the role of Amahl - Brett Angel, Michael Weideberg, and Nathan Engstrom - were invited to return to Racine for a special audience Q&A. All three participated in this interview, along with conductor James Schatzman - and Jim's grandson Tai Heether-Schatzman, who sang the role of Amahl for the 2017 production. The program includes several excerpts from the opera, which had its world premiere over NBC television on Christmas Eve 1951.

Colden is back to bring light to this opera to the masses, and hopefully have a production with one of our modern day opera superstars (hello Audra). And even though we watched the 1955 telecast, it is apparently the same as the original 1951 telecast.Colden's Social -Instagram: @coldenlambWebsite: www.coldenlamb.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ColdenLambA Marc Blitzstein Archive YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BlitzsteinArchivePodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: The Lion King II: Simba's Pride!

Frank Murphy is joined by his friend Kathryn Frady. He recently recorded some See More Smokies episodes with fashion model Victoria Henley.  Frank and Kathryn saw each other at Brandon Gibson's funeral. Kathryn and her husband James spent Thanksgiving with Frank and his wife Jere.  Kathryn produced Amahl and the Night Visitors at Opéra Louisiane. They will do a different Christmas opera next year. Frank saw a picture from 2013 of Kathryn in Marble City Opera's production of The Gift of the Magi.  Frank will emcee Marble City Opera's fundraiser on Saturday at the Knoxville Botanical Gardens and Arboretum. Kathryn will sing during the event as will ten other opera singers who have performed with Marble City Opera over the last ten years. Tickets are available at https://www.marblecityopera.com/tickets   Kathryn will sing in a production of Cabildo in Iowa. The opera was written by Amy Beach in 1932. Kathryn will play a ghost. The Cabildo is an actual building in New Orleans that was once a prison. Frank says he did an opera-based scene in Tuesday's Einstein Simplified improv show.  Kathryn gave her niece a backstage tour during Amahl and the Night Visitors at Opéra Louisiane. Frank likes the backstage area at the Knoxville Civic Auditorium. Frank bought a discounted ticket to the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra's Clayton Holiday Concert.  During the show, Frank got a text and a call from his home-alarm monitoring company. The motion detector had triggered the alarm. Frank's next door neighbor was also notified because he is listed as Frank's emergency contact. Frank contacted four more of his neighbors to ask them to look around while the police were on the way. Frank thinks the heating system might have caused the curtains to billow under the motion detector. Kathryn wonders if it could have been triggered by a mouse.  This episode is sponsored by BoneZones.com (don't forget the S).

Frank attended their Fall concert at the Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. Frank sat next to a man in his ‘80s who was visiting Knoxville. The man's sister is also in the Knoxville Choral Society.  In a matter of minutes, the older man tells Frank that he works as a jazz pianist at bars and restaurants in the San Fernando Valley. The man says that he composed the song “Spooky” which Frank knew as a song by Classics IV.  The man's name is Harry Middlebrooks. He told Frank that he had appeared on The Lawrence Welk Show. Frank relates that he once met a singer named Ava Barber who used to be on the Welk show. Harry says, “I'd love to talk to Ava!

Magi from the East, travel (for two years) guided by a significant astrological event. Along the way (in the opera, Amahl and the Night Visitors) they stop at the home of a poor widow and her son; before finding their way to the chaotic home of Mary, the harried mother of toddler Jesus in Dustin's dramatic interpretation of the familiar tale.Paralleling that energetic telling of the journey of the Magi with the somber story of the small French town of Dieulefit, who sheltered and saved its Jewish community from the Holocaust, Dustin calls on us to listen for the silent messengers.Sermon begins at minute marker 9:10Scripture: Isaiah 60.1-6, 11; Matthew 2.1-12Image: https://holymassimages.blogspot.com/Hymns: Voices Together 267 & 268, What Child is This, music, traditional English, words, William C.

Synopsis On this day in 1952, thirty-one theaters nationwide offered the first pay-per view Met opera telecast. This was a regularly-scheduled performance of Bizet's Carmen broadcast live from the stage of the Metropolitan Opera, featuring Risë Stevens in the title role and Fritz Reiner conducting. The performance was relayed to the theaters by means of a closed TV circuit.* Beginning in 1948, the Metropolitan Opera had experimented with live telecasts of their opening night performances, but relatively few people in the U.S. owned TV sets at the time. By 1952, most American households had TVs, but the Met's manager, Rudolf Bing, was dead-set against any further FREE telecasts. The 1952 pay-per-view experiment was not successful, and it wasn't until 1976—after Bing had resigned—that live telecasts of Metropolitan Opera performances resumed on public television. The most successful of all commercial telecasts of a live opera performance occurred in 1951, when, on Christmas Eve that year, NBC-TV broadcast Amahl and the Night Visitors by Gian-Carlo Menotti on Christmas. NBC's black and white kinescope recording of that premiere performance was broadcast annually for a number of years—until it was accidentally erased by a network employee.** Although Amahl is no longer an annual visitor to television, it is still staged this time of year by amateur and professional opera companies around the world. *Currently the Metropolitan Opera offers a series of live opera performances transmitted in high-definition video via satellite from Lincoln Center in New York City to select venues, primarily movie theaters, in the United States and other parts of the world. The first transmission was of a condensed English-language version of Mozart's The Magic Flute on December 30, 2006. **One surviving copy of the original kinescope did surface in a California archive, and was shown at broadcast museums on both coasts in 2001 to celebrate the work's 50th anniversary.

Dr. Toppin has organized and curated this year's African American Music Conference at UM (Sept. 18-20), and tells us about the many virtual offerings centered around Dr. Patterson, who is the conference's featured guest. Dr. Patterson helps introduce his recordings on our program, and talks about his life in music – much of which involved advocating for African American composers and performers. In 1963, Dr. Patterson famously wrote to NBC television complaining about their practice of using a white singer in blackface for the role of King Balthazar in the televised opera Amahl and the Night Visitors (Menotti). To his surprise, NBC invited Dr. Patterson to audition, and he was selected to play the role himself. While some musical selections have been truncated due to copyright (for purposes of this downloadable podcast), we hear a modern arrangement of Three African-American Spirituals composed by Matthew Rose (and posted here by permission). Dr. Patterson draws a direct correlation between the three spirituals and the murder of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police.

Synopsis On Christmas Eve in 1951, NBC television broadcast live the world premiere performance of Gian Carlo Menotti's opera, “Amahl and the Night Visitors.” Now, for decades the kinescope recording of that original live transmission was thought to be lost, but miraculously, a copy resurfaced just in time for Amahl's 50th anniversary and was shown at the Museum of Television and Radio in Beverly Hills in December of 2001. On the broadcast, the dapper Mr. Menotti can be seen introducing the new work, confessing that NBC had commissioned the opera in 1950, but its wasn't until the Thanksgiving of 1951 that he actually began working on it, inspired by the painting “The Adoration of the Magi,” which he saw at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art.  In fact, Menotti was working on his new score right up to the last minute, delivering it bit by bit to the performers prior to its premiere. The opera proved a hit, and for the next five years became an annual live holiday broadcast on NBC. NBC continued to air “Amahl” occasionally through the 1970s, but by that time it had become an established seasonal tradition for both professional and amateur performers coast to coast.

«Pelle» er toppscorer i den norske eliteserien i fotball, med imponerende 21 mål på 23 kamper! Hans historie og reise til toppfotballen har vært humpete, tøff og lang. Da Amahl gikk på barneskolen fikk han ikke lov til å spille fotball med de andre, fordi moren ikke hadde råd til utstyr og fotballkontigent. Da han heller ikke kom inn på idrettslinja, og i tillegg ble fortalt av Strømsgodset at han var for tynn og aldri kom til å bli fotballspiller, så virket drømmen om å bli proff vanskelig og nærmest umulig. Amahl Pellegrino ga aldri opp. Hans budskap i denne episoden er en oppfordring til alle der ute med en drøm - aldri gi opp. Aldri. Vi snakker også om kampanjen «stopp rasismen», og Pelle forteller om sine opplevelser med diskriminering i fotballen.SOSIALE MEDIERCoach Elo på InstagramPRODUKSJON:Coach Elo produseres av Shaw Media.www.shawmedia.no See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Med Amahl Pellegrino og Martin Roppestad Han har satt fyr på årets Eliteserie, men veien til toppen av toppscorerlista har ikke vært den enkleste for Amahl Pellegrino. Som 20-åring spilte han fortsatt i 4. divisjon, og en rekke skader gjorde at han var i tvil om han ville klare drømmen om å bli profesjonell fotballspiller. I 2020 har han levert 21 målpoeng på 18 startede kamper per 22.oktober. Nå har han Kjartanssons rekord på 25 scoringer i sikte. Men selv tror han at hans neste klubbvalg vil overraske mange. Hvordan har det vært å stå rakrygget gjennom de siste ukene etter rasismeskandalen i Aalesund? Har han troa på den nye "STOPP"-kampanjen?
