It so happened that we haven’t featured the voice in quite some time. We’d like to make up for this by presenting the soprano Tina Beverly.
Ms. Beverly has an agile voice and superb musicality. In this selection, she sings arias from Bach’s Cantata No. 205 and Mozart’s opera Il re pastore.
She then brings us two songs by Edvard Grieg: Solveig’s song and With a water-lily. Debussy’s Claire de lune, from Quatre chansons de jeunesse, follows.
The last piece in this selection is Glitter and be Gay, from Leonard Bernstien’s opera Candid.
William Billingham is the pianist; the violin part in the Bach and the Mozart is performed by Alison Zlotow.
