This Week’s “Morning Show” Features:
“Annalies” with Jason Ianuzzi & Lynn Eustis
Jason Ianuzzi, Artistic Director of the 34-member Cantemus Chamber Chorus, will visit the show this week to discuss their upcoming performance of British composer James Whitbourn’s “Annalies,” the only major choral-orchestral work based on excerpts from “Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl.”
Lynn Eustis, Associate Professor and Chair of Voice at Boston University, will also appear to discuss her role as title soloist for the performance.
Jason will discuss the work’s emotional impact, which he has described as one of “haunting beauty.” He will talk about the work’s enduring importance, and why he scheduled the performance to coincide with International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27th.
Lynn will talk about having performed as title soloist at the work’s U.S. premiere in 2007, and how her interpretation and understanding of the role and its significance has evolved over time.
“Annalies” will be performed on Saturday, January 20th at St. Paul’s Church in Newburyport at 7:30 p.m. and on Sunday, January 21st at the Congregation Shirat Hayam synagogue in Swampscott at 4 p.m.
