SUMMARY:A Nightingale Sang: 175 years of Music in History
DESCRIPTION:In 1851\, the Campbell House was newly built\, the city of St. Louis was flourishing\, and audiences across America were captivated by the voice of opera superstar Jenny Lind\, the “Swedish Nightingale.” 1851 also marked the end of Lind’s North American tour in St. Louis\, a historic event attended by the Campbells. One hundred seventy-five years later\, we invite you to return to that remarkable moment in time. \nJoin acclaimed soprano Angel Azarra for A Nightingale Sang\, an intimate concert performed in the historic parlor of the Campbell House. Surrounded by the elegance of a bygone era\, guests will hear selections from Jenny Lind’s famed 1851 tour alongside music connected to the Campbell family and their world. The program will be performed on the Campbells’ own 1855 square grand piano\, inviting you to imagine an evening much like one the Campbell family enjoyed. \nWith only 36 guests at each performance\, this rare musical gathering offers the chance to step beyond the museum ropes and into the rhythm of nineteenth-century life. Performances will be held Saturday\, September 12 at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday\, September 13 at 4:00 p.m. Tickets are $100 and availability is limited. \n  \n \nListed by Operavore among the “40 Under 40: A New Generation of Superb Opera Singers”\, dramatic soprano Angel Azzarra is known for her “warm voice that swells from staggering size to pianissimi as effortlessly as the ocean waves” (Sybaritic Singer\,). Ms. Azzarra performed excerpts from the title role of Ariadne auf Naxos at Opera Theatre of St. Louis\,  where she was praised for “simply astonishing power and pure beauty” (Broadway World\,).  Further operatic commitments have included her triumphant ride as Gerhilde in Detroit Opera’s The Valkyries under the baton of Sir Andrew Davis\, Opera Festival of Chicago‘s inaugural seasons of Puccini’s Il Tabarro and Verdi’s Il Corsaro\, dell’Arte Opera Ensemble’s Donna Anna in Mozart’s Don Giovanni\, continuing that role with Gulfshore Opera and St. Petersburg Opera\, and her Mimì in Mobile Opera‘s La Bohème. Recent performances have included Turandot\, Foreign Princess with Opera Ithaca’s Rusalka\,  and her Kennedy Center debut described by The Washington Post as “…visually vibrant and vocally dazzling” as Melpomene in Les Fêtes de Thalie with Opera Lafayette. Other works beyond the physical stage include a filmed production as Berta in The Barber of Seville with Opera Theatre Saint Louis and the lead in an original piece\, Once Upon a Winter\, which premiered on PBS in 2021. Angel also advocates for opera and classical music education on her YouTube channel\, and social platform AngelOpera\, which has reached over 5 million viewers\, and has over 57\,000 regular subscribers across platforms. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://angelazzarra.com/
