durée : 01:29:00 - « Porgy And Bess », 90 ans - par : Laurent Valière - C'est le 10 octobre 1935 que l'œuvre la plus ambitieuse de George Gershwin, "Porgy and Bess", ouvre à Broadway dans le circuit privé. Échec relatif à sa création, l'œuvre est désormais entrée au répertoire des opéras du monde entier. - réalisé par : Céline Parfenoff Vous aimez ce podcast ?

Heute vor 90 Jahren feierte "Porgy and Bess" in New York Premiere – die Oper von George Gershwin wurde zu einer der erfolgreichsten Broadway-Produktionen eines vollständig afroamerikanischen Ensembles.

George Gershwin segue mais atual do que nunca, e sua obra ganha novos contornos sob a direção de Grace Passô na aguardada estreia de Porgy and Bess no Theatro Municipal. Com seu olhar poético e ousado, Passô traz à cena o universo multifacetado desta ópera, que cruza as fronteiras do jazz, do teatro e da música clássica para contar uma história de luta e amor. Gershwin, que sempre transitou com leveza entre mundos, ainda nos anos 1920 e pouco depois de criar peças icônicas como Rhapsody in Blue, se encantou com o romance Porgy, de DuBose Heyward.A parceria entre Gershwin e Heyward nasceu de uma troca de cartas fervorosa, que resultou na colaboração entre os dois e Ira, o irmão do compositor e letrista consolidado. Em 1934, o compositor mergulhou no ambiente da Carolina do Sul, absorvendo as histórias e os ritmos que vibravam na alma do romance. Assim, em 1935, estreava Porgy and Bess em Boston, com uma inovação que ressoou como um grito de liberdade: a primeira ópera a trazer solistas negros de formação clássica, em um tempo em que tal escolha era uma transgressão.A trama de Porgy and Bess gira em torno das dores e paixões dos moradores de Catfish Row, com personagens como Porgy, um homem humilde e com uma deficiência física, e Bess, em busca de redenção após uma vida de provações. Canções como Summertime, My Man's Gone Now e I Got Plenty o' Nuttin emergem como clássicos eternos, capturando a alma da música norte-americana.Participam deste episódio: Grace Passô, Maíra Ferreira, Luiz-Ottavio Faria, Latonia Moore, Marly Montoni, Jean William, Betty Garcés, Juliana Taino, Edineia Oliveira, Núbia Eunice, Edna D'Oliveira, Michel de Souza, Mikael Coutinho e Samuel Martins.Podcast realizado pelas bolsistas Débora Oliveira, Mirella Lima e Triz Cristina, sob supervisão de Ligiana Costa.

Dr. Kendra Hamilton's book, Romancing the Gullah in the Age of Porgy and Bess, is a literary and cultural history of a place: the Gullah Geechee Coast, a four-state area that's one of only a handful of places that can truly be said to be the “cradle of Black culture” in the United States.

The first part of Backstage Babble's 200th episode celebration is here, and it is an honor to be talking theater legend Jack O'Brien, who recently received the lifetime achievement award at the 2024 Tonys. Tune in to hear some of the stories of his expansive career, including the genesis of his newest show THE ROOMMATE, his advice for young directors, his friendship an collaboration with Stephen Sondheim, figuring out the sensitive timing of SHUCKED, learning from Ellis Rabb about how to give notes to actors, the show of his that launched more careers than any other, his unique relationship with the cast of PORGY AND BESS, how he decided to leave his position as artistic director of The Old Globe, the intriguing critical response to IMAGINARY FRIENDS and CAROUSEL, how his revival of ST. LOUIS WOMAN almost came to Broadway, revising DAMN YANKEES with George Abbott, his criteria for choosing shows to direct, how INTO THE WOODS changed the regional theater landscape, and so much more. This episode is a masterclass in directing from one of the greatest theatrical minds of all time. I can't think of a more perfect way to celebrate 200 episodes.

Porgy and Bess is an English-language opera by American composer George Gershwin.

John W. Bubbles and Todd Duncan had deep roots on the Indiana Avenue scene, and both were featured in the original cast of George Gershwin's Porgy and Bess. Explore their lives and music on the latest episode of Echoes of Indiana Avenue.  John W. Bubbles was a streetwise song and dance man who became a star of the vaudeville stage as a young man on the Avenue. Bubbles created the role of Sportin' Life in Porgy and Bess.  Todd Duncan was a classically trained vocalist who studied at Butler University and broke racial barriers in the world of opera. Duncan was George Gershwin's original Porgy.

Dr. Kendra Y. Hamilton's Romancing the Gullah in the Age of Porgy and Bess (University of Georgia Press, 2024) is a literary and cultural history of the Gullah Geechee Coast, a four-state area that is one of only a handful of places that can truly be said to be the “cradle of Black culture” in the United States. An African American ethnic group who predominantly live in the Lowcountry region of South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida within the coastal plain and the Sea Islands, the Gullah people have preserved a significant influence of Africanisms because of their unique geographic isolation.  This book seeks to fill a significant cultural gap in Gullah history. While there is a veritable industry of books on literary Charleston and on the Lowcountry, along with a plenitude of Gullah-inspired studies in history, anthropology, linguistics, folklore, and religion, there has never been a comprehensive study of the region's literary influence, particularly in the years of the Harlem and Charleston Renaissance. By giving voice to artists and culture makers, uncovering buried histories, and revealing secret cross-racial connections amid official practices of Jim Crow, Hamilton sheds new light on an incomplete cultural history.

Sunday 29 August 2021: Two books about two very different composers—from Elizabethan England to the birth of New York City.

When we hear the name George Gershwin, we often associate it with jazz or musical theater, but he didn't see himself that way. He saw himself as a standard composer of his time and influenced by the sounds around him. So what does that mean for his opera Porgy and Bess? Or is it a Broadway musical?

On a completely different note (and tone and genre), Carl looks at American Composer George Gershwin's opera 'Porgy and Bess'.

John W. Bubbles and Todd Duncan had deep roots on the Indiana Avenue music scene, and both were featured in the original cast of George Gershwin's iconic opera Porgy and Bess.

Porgy and Bess faces controversy each time it is performed. Black subject matter, created by the white composer George Gershwin, provides lush music rife with stereotypes. This is the second in a two-part series to help prove, or disprove, that Gershwin's music transcends racial stereotypes.
