Baritone Michael Preacely '01 to Perform, Lead Talks at 91ֱ��</h1> <article> <h1>Baritone Michael Preacely '01 to Perform, Lead Talks at 91ֱ��</h1> <p>eburnett — Mon, 07 Nov 2016 18:01:50 +0000</p> <span>Baritone Michael Preacely '01 to Perform, Lead Talks at 91ֱ��</span> <span><span>eburnett</span></span> <span><time datetime="2016-11-07T13:01:50-05:00" title="Monday, November 7, 2016 - 13:01">Mon, 11/07/2016 - 13:01</time> </span> <div class="text-content field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Michael Preacely’s first big break came while he still roamed the halls of 91ֱ��.</p> <p>It started with an appeal from Michael Morgan ’79, who had been music director of the Oakland East Bay Symphony for a decade. “I have it on good authority that you’re a fine baritone,” Morgan’s message to Preacely read. “E-mail me back if this is true.”</p> <p>Indeed it was true, and soon young Preacely found himself booked for a cross-country gig with a piece he had never performed: Rachmaninoff’s choral symphony <i>The Bells</i>. “I went to get the music, and I was like <i>this is mature</i>,” Preacely remembers thinking. His 91ֱ�� accompanist, Dan Michalak, gave him no time to feel uneasy.</p> <p>“Dan said, ‘You’re gonna sing the socks off this thing. Let’s do it!’ I have never been coached like that in my life. l went out and sang the socks off of that song, and they hired me immediately for the next season!”</p> <p>A decade and a half later, Preacely will make his first return to 91ֱ�� since his student years, to perform a recital alongside Michalak at 8 p.m. Thursday, March 31, in Stull Hall. The program includes Copland’s <i>Old American Songs</i> and a series of Broadway tunes, as well as traditional spirituals. It will be followed by a question-and-answer session.</p> <p>“I am so looking forward to working with Dan again—it’s insane!” he says. “I cannot wait to collaborate with him again.”</p> <p>Michalak shares his enthusiasm. “The main thing I remember about Michael—aside from his being an incredibly nice guy with a great voice—is that he has an insatiable thirst for knowledge and always maintains great positive energy about the entire music-learning process,” the vocal coach says.</p> <p>Preacely’s visit, made possible by 91ֱ��’s office of <a href="https://new.oberlin.edu/office/student-academic-services/index.dot">Student Academic Services</a>, also includes a Friday, April 1, talk, part of 91ֱ��’s <em>First in the Family</em> speaker series. The 4:30 p.m. program takes place at Afrikan Heritage House (Lord-Saunders; 126 Forest St.). He will also lead a career-development talk in Kulas Recital Hall at 3:30 p.m., immediately preceding his <em>First in the Family</em> presentation.</p> <p>Preacely will be joined by his wife, LeTicia Preacely ’03, whom he met and married at 91ֱ�� in a ceremony presided over by 91ֱ�� Associate Professor of Religion <a href="https://new.oberlin.edu/arts-and-sciences/departments/religion/faculty_detail.dot?id=21017">A.G. Miller</a>. During premarital counseling, they became dear friends with Miller and his wife <a href="https://new.oberlin.edu/office/dean-of-students/staff_detail.dot?id=233341">Brenda Grier-Miller</a>, associate dean of Student Academic Services and founder of the <em>First in the Family</em> series.</p> <p>"Michael has always used his instrument, his personality, and his love for God to serve the people and places where he has been blessed to live and travel," says Grier-Miller.</p> <p>Launched in 2011, <em>First in the Family</em> brings back former first-generation students to speak about their experiences and to demonstrate to current students that they can make their own success stories. The Preacelys’ visit marks the first collaboration between Student Academic Services and the conservatory.</p> <p>Originally from Chicago, Preacely had only an uncle who attended college before him. “My mom and dad knew the importance of going to college, but they could never give me a clear sense of what it was like,” he remembers. “They weren’t able to tell me about the difficulties that go with it, and the triumphs as well.”</p> <p>Like many young singers, Preacely’s first exposure to music came in church, where his talent was recognized by his choir director and others. One day as a teenager, he received a brochure from 91ֱ�� with a photo of Hall Auditorium on the cover. “I said, ‘I want to sing <i>there</i>!’” Move-in weekend of his first year on campus marked his first-ever visit to campus.</p> <p>“I was like a lot of first-generation college students in that I didn’t go through the process of looking at colleges,” says Preacely, who studied with Richard Miller. “When I first got to 91ֱ��, I missed home big time because I had never been away before. I went home 10 times in my first semester, but I got over it quick!”</p> <p>Today, Preacely happily blends his regional performing career with a blissful family life raising three young sons. He has earned acclaim for his roles in operas ranging from <i>The Phantom of the Opera</i> to <i>Porgy and Bess</i>, on stages from New York to Russia. His wife, a former religion major, is communications director and a preacher at their church in Lexington, Ky.</p> <p>Why Lexington? It’s the home of the University of Kentucky, where Preacely earned a master’s degree—the first in the family, of course.</p> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-type field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item">News Releases</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2016-03-17T12:00:00Z">Thu, 03/17/2016 - 12:00</time> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-author field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Erich Burnett</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2356">Conservatory</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2371">Speaker Series</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2401">Resources for Students</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2366">Guest Artists & Speakers</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2974">Conservatory Alumni</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-programs field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?program=25421">Religion</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-departments field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/arts-and-sciences/departments/religion" hreflang="und">Religion</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-pin-school-page field--type-boolean field--label-hidden field__item">Off</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-photo-gallery-top field--type-boolean field--label-hidden field__item">false</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-media field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item"> </div> </article> <article> <h1>Miró Quartet to Perform March 10 as Part of 91ֱ��'s Artist Recital Series</h1> <p>eburnett — Mon, 07 Nov 2016 18:01:50 +0000</p> <span>Miró Quartet to Perform March 10 as Part of 91ֱ��'s Artist Recital Series</span> <span><span>eburnett</span></span> <span><time datetime="2016-11-07T13:01:50-05:00" title="Monday, November 7, 2016 - 13:01">Mon, 11/07/2016 - 13:01</time> </span> <div class="text-content field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>The Miró Quartet, the first quartet ever to be honored with an Avery Fisher Career Grant, will perform at 91ֱ�� as part of the Artist Recital Series at 8 p.m. Thursday, March 10, in Finney Chapel.

The fund also provides financial assistance for career-advancement opportunities to the most promising voice students in the conservatory. Those students earn the designation "Rubin Scholars." Meryl Dominguez ’14, Emily Hopkins ’15, and Joshua Blue ’16 have earned the distinction in the program's initial years.</p> <p>For more information on Marilyn Horne and other arts at 91ֱ��, visit the online <a href="/node/85721">Arts Guide</a>.</p></div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-type field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item">News Releases</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2016-02-17T12:00:00Z">Wed, 02/17/2016 - 12:00</time> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-author field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Erich Burnett</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2356">Conservatory</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2366">Guest Artists & Speakers</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-programs field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?program=32971">Opera Theater</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-departments field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/conservatory/divisions/vocal-studies" hreflang="und">Vocal Studies</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-pin-school-page field--type-boolean field--label-hidden field__item">Off</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-photo-gallery-top field--type-boolean field--label-hidden field__item">false</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-media field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item"> </div> </article> <article> <h1>András Schiff to Visit 91ֱ�� for Master Class, Performance</h1> <p>eburnett — Mon, 07 Nov 2016 18:01:50 +0000</p> <span>András Schiff to Visit 91ֱ�� for Master Class, Performance</span> <span><span>eburnett</span></span> <span><time datetime="2016-11-07T13:01:50-05:00" title="Monday, November 7, 2016 - 13:01">Mon, 11/07/2016 - 13:01</time> </span> <div class="text-content field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>World-renowned pianist and pedagogue Sir András Schiff will visit 91ֱ�� this week for a pair of unforgettable events, both of them open to the public.</p> <p>Schiff will hold a <a href="https://calendar.oberlin.edu/event/guest_master_class_sir_andras_schiff_piano?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=91ֱ��+College#.Vrt0hVJb8WE">guest master class</a> with 91ֱ�� piano students at 6 p.m. Thursday, February 11, in Warner Concert Hall.

MacArthur Award-winner Chris Thile has elevated mandolin playing from its folk origins to the finest in jazz improvisation and classical performance. Fiddle player Gabe Witcher has more than 300 records and countless movie and television scores to his credit, including the 2006 Oscar winner Brokeback Mountain. Three-finger banjo player Noam Pikelny developed his bluegrass facility growing up in Chicago; he studied music at the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana before striking out professionally and redefining the role of the instrument. Versatile bass player Paul Kowert, a graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, has performed with orchestras as a soloist and section member, in such internationally renowned venues as Switzerland’s Verbier Festival. Guitarist Chris Eldridge, a 2004 graduate of 91ֱ�� College, devoted his student years to creating an independent major in bluegrass music, working closely with Professor of Jazz Guitar Bobby Ferrazza. <i>The Phosphorescent Blues</i>, the band’s fourth album for Nonesuch, was released in January 2015.</p> <p><b>ABOUT AOIFE O’DONOVAN:</b> A driving force in the contemporary folk and bluegrass scene, singer-songwriter Aoife O’Donovan is the lead singer of the band, Crooked Still, and a member of the female folk trio Sometymes Why.

It is intended to support annual visits to 91ֱ�� by renowned performers of various American musical styles, encouraging interaction with students through collaborations, concerts, master classes, lessons, discussions, and mentorship.</p> <p>Presented in conjunction with 91ֱ��’s developing Performance and Improvisation program, the Punch Brothers’ residency will unite students in classical applied studies and <a href="http://new.oberlin.edu/conservatory/departments/contemporary-music/">contemporary music</a> with those in the <a href="http://new.oberlin.edu/conservatory/departments/jazz-studies/">jazz department</a>, as well as musicians in the Technology in Music and Related Arts program, or TIMARA.</p> <p>“I hope that students will feel a charge from being so close to these artists, and to hear straight from the artists the sheer amount of work that goes into this kind of lifestyle,” says Helms. “It’s really a special opportunity to pick the minds of musicians like that.”</p> <p>The Punch Brothers’ residency began December 2 with a week-long visit highlighted by a pair of late-night performances—one of them a raucous jam session in which students joined in on instruments ranging from harp to kazoo. When the Punch Brothers return in March, students will have the opportunity to further develop ideas uncovered during the band’s initial visit.</p> <p>The residency concludes with a collaborative performance on Commencement Weekend in May, bringing the discoveries of the students’ and band’s work together onstage.</p> <p>"There is a certain genius in the Punch Brothers' music, and they are capable of evoking so many styles so masterfully," says Bobby Ferrazza, director of the <a href="http://new.oberlin.edu/conservatory/departments/jazz-studies/">Division of Jazz Studies</a> at 91ֱ��. "Our students will gain so much by having this opportunity to work this closely with them."</p> <p>"There’s a very real sense of musical cross-pollination with the Punch Brothers," adds Michael Strauss, an associate professor of viola and chamber music, and a member of the faculty committee that coordinated the residency. "Because of their unique voice, they’ve been able to stretch the musical perceptions of their medium.</p> <p>"It’s a perfect marriage to bring this group to campus," says Strauss. "91ֱ��'s Performance and Improvisation program has already opened these kinds of avenues to students. The modern musician really shouldn't have boundaries, and there just isn't a lot of music that the Punch Brothers can’t sync with."</p> <p>Formed in 2006, the Punch Brothers boast members who hail from all over the musical map, from bluegrass to jazz to classical. MacArthur Award-winner Chris Thile has elevated mandolin playing from its folk origins to the finest in jazz improvisation and classical performance. Fiddle player Gabe Witcher has more than 300 records and countless movie and television scores to his credit, including the 2006 Oscar winner <i>Brokeback Mountain</i>. Three-finger banjo player Noam Pikelny developed his bluegrass facility growing up in Chicago; he studied music at the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana before striking out professionally and redefining the role of the instrument. Versatile bass player Paul Kowert, a graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, has performed with orchestras as a soloist and section member, in such internationally renowned venues as Switzerland’s Verbier Festival.</p> <p>Guitarist Chris Eldridge, a 2004 graduate of 91ֱ�� College, devoted his student years to creating an independent major in bluegrass music, working closely with guitarist Ferrazza.</p> <p>“Everybody stands to learn from everybody else, and from all approaches to music,” says Eldridge. “There’s really no reason they should be separate, and no reason that they shouldn’t all be embraced. No matter what you’re doing musically, having a wider grasp and a love of different things will only help you to be a better musician.”</p> <p>In addition to the residency, the Punch Brothers will perform at Finney Chapel on Sunday, March 9, in a concert produced in conjunction with 91ֱ��’s <a href="/artsguide/artist-recitals">Artist Recital Series</a>.

The <i>New York Times</i><em> </em>calls her singing “at once earthen and gleaming …. Simply glorious.” Tickets are $15–$47 and can be ordered by calling 91ֱ��’s Central Ticket Service at 1-800-371-0178 or online at oberlin.edu/arseries.</p> <p>Voigt is known for the singular power and beauty of her voice, as well as for her captivating stage presence. She is internationally revered for her performances in the operas of Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss, in addition to her appearances as the great heroines in Italian opera. An active recitalist and performer of Broadway standards and popular songs, Voigt has an extensive discography and has given many enthusiastically received master classes. She also appears regularly, as both performer and host, in the Metropolitan Opera’s <i>The Met: Live in HD</i> series, transmitted live to movie theaters across the U.S. and overseas.</p> <p>Voigt made her first appearances of the 2012–13 season on television as host of a special five-night presentation of Wagner’s complete <i>Ring</i> cycle on the PBS series <i>Great Performances from the Met</i>. Robert Lepage’s visionary new production, starring Voigt as Brünnhilde, was released on Blu-ray and DVD. The production will be revived at the Metropolitan Opera in spring 2013, when Voigt reprises the role that she made “exciting and expressive” (<i>New York Times</i>) with a voice that “blazed with passion” (<i>New York Daily News</i>). Other upcoming performance highlights include the starring role of Cassandre in Francesca Zambello’s revival of Berlioz’s <i>Les Troyens</i> at the Met, and reprising her hit portrayal of Minnie in Puccini’s <i>La fanciulla del West</i> at Belgium’s Liege Opera.</p> <p>Throughout her career, Voigt has given definitive performances of iconic roles in German opera, from Richard Strauss’s Ariadne, Salome, Kaiserin (<i>Frau ohne Schatten</i>), and Chrysothemis (<i>Elektra</i>), to Wagner’s Sieglinde (<i>Die Walküre</i><em>)</em>, Elizabeth (<i>Tannhäuser</i>), and Isolde. She is also noted for her portrayals of such popular Italian operatic roles as Tosca, Aida, Amelia in <i>Un ballo in maschera</i>, Leonora in <i>La forza del destino</i>, and La Gioconda.</p> <p>A devotee of Broadway and American song, Voigt has given acclaimed performances of this popular fare, including benefit concerts for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS and New York Theatre Workshop. She has sung concerts with Barbara Cook and Dianne Reeves at the Hollywood Bowl, and given performances in Lincoln Center’s long-running <i>American Songbook</i> series. Voigt has also been profiled by many important national media outlets, such as CBS’s <i>60 Minutes</i>, <i>Good Morning America</i> and <i>Vanity Fair</i>.</p> <p>Voigt studied at California State University at Fullerton and was a member of San Francisco Opera’s Merola Program. The highly decorated soprano won the Gold Medal in Moscow’s Tchaikovsky Competition and First Prize at Philadelphia’s Luciano Pavarotti Vocal Competition. She was recognized with a Chevalier dans l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres and was named <i>Musical America</i>’s Vocalist of the Year 2003. In 2007 she won an Opera News Award for distinguished achievement, and in 2009 she received an Honorary Doctorate from the University of South Carolina. Known to Twitter fans as a “Dramatic soprano and down-to-earth Diva,” Voigt was named by the <i>Los Angeles Times</i> as one of the top 25 cultural tweeters to follow. She is currently writing a memoir that is scheduled for publication by Harper Collins in 2013.</p> <p>Voigt recently won a 2013 Grammy Award for Best Opera Recording for her work on the album, <i>Wagner: Der Ring Des Nibelungen</i>, released by Deutsche Grammophon.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Fact Sheet</strong><br> Sunday, March 10, 2013, 8:00 p.m.</p> <p>Deborah Voigt, soprano<br> Finney Chapel, 91ֱ�� College<br> 90 N.
