Immerse yourself in the world of Duparc, and join singers Aria Minasian, Megan Warburton, Nicholas Music, and me on a voyage through the panorama of human emotions. Duparc was a master at creating sensuous, lush soundscapes, but tragically stopped composing at the age of 37 and destroyed much of his work. In a concert called “Sorrow and Ecstasy,” four singers and I presented his complete songs. In this episode, we delve into Duparc’s musical depictions of grief and rage to pure bliss and the unique audience-centric facets of our performance.

Dr. Marcía Porter, soprano, joins me as we share our recording of a fantastic song - “Tiger, Tiger” - composed by Rebecca Clark with text by William Blake. The text painting is palpable; the piano is the tiger in this song. Clarke was a prolific composer although many of her works remain unpublished. At the age of 90, she was still composing and still revising this song.

Natalie Sherer had the pleasure of speaking with Drs. John Etsell and Daniel McGrew as they discover the genius text painting and storytelling embedded in the art song "Viola" by Franz Schubert (1797 - 1828) about a personified violet who blooms too early. Gregarious and thoughtful, John and Daniel chaperone us through Viola's journey and the refrain that takes on a new color and underlying mood each time it returns throughout the drama.

Additionally, Natalie gets to correspond with Maestro Adriano, a conductor in Switzerland who shares a unique perspective and story about the piece's inception.
