The Talk: Instructions for Black Children
When They Interact With the Police
words and music by Damien Geter

Songs of Love and Justice
by Dr. Adolphus Hailstork; text by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Night Trip
composed by Carlos Simon, libretto by Sandra Seaton

Two Black Churches
composed by Shawn Okpebholo
“Ballad of Birmingham” text by Dudley Randall | “The Rain” text by Marcus Amaker

“Your Daddy’s Son” from Ragtime
music by Stephen Flaherty, lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, book by Terrence McNally

Songs for the African Violet
words and music by Jasmine Barnes

These compositions are about love, justice, and experiences of being a Black American. We witness moments of generational grief: a coming-of-age conversation that is a matter of life and death in The Talk; and a desperate mother’s song to her baby in “Your Daddy’s Son.” In Two Black Churches we grieve with communities generations apart—both facing the aftermath of murder and hate crimes perpetrated by white supremacists. In Night Trip we stop at a gas station with a Black family on a road trip in Jim Crow America, and witness the lack of dignity that welcomes them. Then too, we celebrate the activism of choosing love, with the words of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (Songs of Love and Justice); and the resilience that is demanded of Black women finding joy (Songs for the African Violet).

This series of videos celebrates Resonance’s hometown of Portland, Oregon, and the space it provides for Resonance artists to continue to create. Starting in the summer of 2020, singers and spoken word artists met in acoustic spaces around the city – six feet apart, masked, and yet together. Viewers will experience music performed in these gritty, hauntingly beautiful spaces. Resonance will produce four episodes beginning this October, free of charge and available for the whole world to enjoy.

Available to view for free starting at 3 PM on Wednesday April 28th on our website, as well as YouTube and Facebook

Performed by Resonance artists, and in collaboration with Oh! Creative and Portland filmmaker Kenton Waltz, the series celebrates the city of Portland with featured local artists, musicians, and famous Portland Bridges.

Third Angle’s mission is to perform and record the masterworks of the twenty-first century while commissioning new works from regional and nationally recognized composers. Its bold and innovative programming, high artistic standards, and tireless efforts to bring music of the 20th and 21st centuries to a diverse audience have earned it abundant critical acclaim.

With the organization’s focus on creating a soundtrack for our time, Third Angle has created and presented more than 125 programs of contemporary music, commissioned more than 66 new works, and released 12 recordings to critical acclaim. Sound of the Five: the chamber music of Chen Yi, was named a top 10 recording for 2009 by National Public Radio.

Third Angle’s roguish programming crafts experiences that are mind-altering by design, including concerts created to work in harmony or dissonance with their environment, wildly divergent repertoire, and a blending of the arts that redefines the genre. At a Third Angle performance, you never know quite what will happen next, but one thing is certain:

Third Angle New Music is anything but ordinary.

ABOUT OUR PRODUCTION
Sung in Italian with English captions.
Exact run time to be determined.

A tour de force. A mother is burned at the stake as a witch. A horrifying act of revenge by her daughter is made worse by mistaken identity. Vengeance festers in cold blood for years—until a duel, a curse, a love triangle, and an execution reveal the terrible truth.

In this semi-staged concert production, we’ll focus on the show-stopping music the defines this unrelenting drama, in a landscape created with video projections by filmmaker Greg Emetaz.

Digital access will be available for 45 days, starting on May 7, 2021 on our digital channel, Portland Opera Onscreen. Live outdoor performances dates and details to be announced.

Chamber Music Corvallis presents: Cuarteto Latinoamericano

European romanticism gets a Latin twist with Cuarteto Latinoamericano in a program called Mexican Romantic Quartets. These elegant pieces, many of which have never been heard outside of Mexico, showcase all the lush sounds of the late romantics with a special passion that only comes from South of the border. – General Arts Touring. “Cuarteto Latinoamericano’s members are three Bitran brothers: violinists Saul and Aron and cellist Alvaro, with violist Javier Montiel. They have recorded more than 80 CDs, including nearly the entire Latin American repertoire for string quartet… They have premiered over a hundred works written for them, and they continue to introduce new and neglected composers to the genre.” – Cuarteto Latinoamericano

While there are tentative dates set for concerts in the future, the CMC board will continue to evaluate, based on the status of the pandemic, on a monthly basis. All confirmed updates and notices will be posted to the website as well as via email. Learn more at chambermusiccorvallis.org
