The Boston Pops, under the direction of conductor Keith Lockhart, will present five concerts featuring Leonard Bernstein’s compositions as part of a season-long tribute to the centennial of this great American musical icon. These programs draw from across his decades of compositions and his deep collaboration with the Boston Symphony, Tanglewood, and the Boston Pops from his beginnings as the protégé of BSO Music Director Serge Koussevitzky in 1940 until the last concerts of his career at Tanglewood in 1990. The Leonard Bernstein Centennial Tribute programs will kick off with Bernstein’s brassy Overture to Candide before launching into the composer’s fast-paced Three Dances from the ballet Fancy Free. The program will also showcase music from Bernstein’s classic musicals On the Town and Wonderful Town. Post intermission, audiences will be treated to the “Mambo,” “One Hand, One Heart,” and “Tonight” from West Side Story. The cast of performers includes local singers Matthew Anderson, Teresa Blume, Aimee Doherty, David McFerrin, and Andrew Tighe.

"The Finishing School," comic opera in one act

  • Keiter Center for Performing Arts (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Walnut Hill School for the Arts Voice Program presents "The Finishing School" a comic opera in one act. Music by Franz von Suppe, New Adaptation by Martha Collins. DIRECTED BY TERESA WINNER BLUME

The scene is set in the late 1890s in a woman’s preparatory “finishing” school, loosely inspired by our very own Walnut Hill. This particular evening, all the young students are restless, and feeling especially romantic, dramatic and lovesick. The stoic and morally superior headmistress Miss Regina and her fellow teachers demand the girls set aside their silliness and focus on their studies. As the girls continue to entertain themselves in their dramatic pursuits, Helen dreams of being engaged to her beau, Charles. Sadly, her father has forbidden it unless Charles can gain secure employment within 48 hours. Charles comes to visit in secret, and a plan is hatched to change the fate of their lives together. The plan, of course, depends on perfectly timed comedic hijinx and deceptions in the garden at night, as one might expect in an opera. Everyone finds themselves in some sort of compromising scenario until, at last, they come together in a wonderfully happy end!

One Act. 65 minutes. No intermission. 

 

Keiter Center for Performing Arts, Natick, MA

Saturday April 8th, 7pm.

Sunday, April 9th, 2pm.

Directed by Teresa Winner Blume. Featuring all Walnut Hill School for the Arts voice majors.

SONIC BLOSSOM Lee Mingwei

  • Museum of Fine Arts, William I. Koch Gallery (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Teresa is honored to have been selected to perform Lee Mingwei: SONIC BLOSSOM, the US debut. World-renowned artist, Lee Mingwei, presents the first on-going performance art piece that the MFA has ever produced, featuring some of the most beloved of all of Schubert's art songs. There has been much press about the project. See some feature articles and video featuring Teresa's performance and interviews with the Boston Globe and the Boston Herald, here.  

What to expect: In the William I. Koch Gallery, as patrons enjoy the artwork, the Singer will wander among them. She will select a museum patron, and ask if they would like to receive a gift of song. If they agree, they will be led to a special chair designed by the artist, and the Singer will perform one of five Schubert lieder for the guest. SONIC BLOSSOM was inspired by a time when the artist's mother was ill, when the songs of Schubert were especially calming and healing during her recovery. Lee Mingwei has made a name for himself with his intelligent and moving art installations, which bring connectedness to the viewer and celebrate the human spirit.

Teresa will be the soloist during these times:

  • March 11, 9:45-1:45
  • March 16, 9:45-1:15
  • March 25, 9:45-1:45
