SUMMARY:Alchemy: American Art Songs
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Library’s Community Room\, where Mezzo-Soprano
 Rebecca Shrimpton and pianist Herman Weiss will share a fascinating 
 program that illustrates the uniquely American confluence of classical
 music with popular art forms. Their selections will feature composers
 Leonard Bernstein\, Charles Ives\, Paul Bowles\, William Bolcom\, and
 Florence Price.\nAmong other songs\, they will present “A Simple Song”
 from Bernstein’s “Mass\,” with lyrics by Stephen Schwartz\, two songs
 from Ives’ “The Things Our Fathers Loved (and the greatest of these was
 Liberty)\,” and three songs from Bolcom’s  “Cabaret
 Songs.”\nRebecca\, a classical mezzo soprano and jazz singer\, is an
 Associate Professor of Voice at Berklee College of Music and has a
 Master’s Degree from New England Conservatory of Music. Herman created a
 Master of Music program in composition at the Longy School of Music of Bard
 College in Cambridge\, where he chaired the department of composition for
 12 years. He has a PhD in Music Composition from Brandeis University and
 studied composition\, piano and conducting at New England Conservatory.
 Their recent recording project\, “Passion Flower: American Art Song from
 Ives to Ellington\,” will be released this coming year.\nThe program is
 free and open to the public\; the Library’s Community Room is handicapped
 accessible.\n
