SUMMARY:The MET: Live in HD | Wozzeck (Berg) German w/e.s.t. [ENCORE]
DESCRIPTION:Synopsis\nYannick Nézet-Séguin conducts William Kentridge’s new production of Alban Berg’s expressionistic masterpiece Wozzeck\, regarded for its intense emotional power and brilliant score as one of the most significant operas of the 20th century. Composed during and in the 5 aftermath of World War I\, Berg’s dark exploration of a soldier besieged by the evils of society\, is staged by Kentridge in a ramshackle warren of stairs\, ramps\, discarded furniture\, and debris. His own theatrically animated charcoal drawings\, along with other projected drawings\, maps\, and film clips\, evoke a nightmarish world of crashed planes\, searchlights\, ghostly gas masks\, and battlefields. Peter Mattei makes his role debut as Wozzeck opposite Elza van den Heever as Marie\, the mother of his child. Singing the roles of Wozzeck’s tormentors are Christopher Ventris as the Drum-Major\, Gerhard Siegel as the Captain\, and Christian Van Horn as the Doctor. Andrew Staples makes his Met debut as Andres. Kentridge\, who previously directed Berg’s Lulu and Shostakovich’s The Nose at the Met\, unveiled the new production at the 2017 Salzburg Festival\, where it received critical acclaim. Kentridge’s production is a co-production of the Met\, Canadian Opera Company\, Opera Australia\, and Salzburg Festival. \n\n\nCast\nElza van den Heever (Marie)\, Tamara Mumford (Margret)\, Christopher Ventris (The Drum-Major)\, Gerhard Siegel (The Captain)\, Andrew Staples (Andres)\, Peter Mattei (Wozzeck)\, Christian Van Horn (Doctor) \n\n\nDirectors\nConductor: Yannick Nézet-Séguin\, Production: William Kentridge

SUMMARY:Royal Conservatory | Branford Marsalis Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Grammy Award-winning\, New Orleans-born Branford Marsalis has stayed the course. From his early acclaim as a saxophonist bringing new energy and new audiences to the jazz art\, he has refined and expanded his talents and his horizons as a musician\, composer\, bandleader\, and educator – a 21st century mainstay of artistic excellence. It is no secret that the Branford Marsalis Quartet can be as freewheeling off the bandstand as in performance. Saxophonist Marsalis\, pianist Joey Calderazzo\, bassist Eric Revis\, and drummer Justin Faulkner are each bold personalities with strong opinions\, equally intense in musical exchanges. \nMarsalis is\, as the Los Angeles Times dubbed him\, “the highest echelon of jazz tenor saxophonists.” As the eldest musical sibling in jazz’s most famous contemporary clan\, he parlayed his formative experiences in Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers and his brother Wynton’s band into simultaneous careers as a performer\, educator\, composer\, label owner\, and bandleader with nearly 30 albums to his name. An uncompromising artist and three-time Grammy Award winner\, Marsalis’s insatiable desire to expand horizons has found him performing with the New York Philharmonic\, embracing hip hop influences with his Buckshot LaFonque project\, leading the house band on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno\, and working in the pop realm with Sting and Bruce Hornsby. But Marsalis is best known as the leader of this extraordinary quartet\, a group that plays dauntingly intricate and breathtakingly dynamic music. A powerfully kinetic sound that entails navigating odd meters and eye-blink tempo shifts\, it is an approach captured on the band’s new OKeh Records album\, The Secret Between the Shadow and the Soul. \nAfter the concert\, enjoy a beverage and more music at the Postlude Performance. \nTickets and details HERE.
