Voice Department Recital: Songs, Arias, and Waltzes
Tonight’s program features singers all of whom are graduating from the vocal department. This will be their final concert as Curtis students.
Repertoire includes songs of Duparc, Strauss and Tosti, arias of Mozart and Verdi, the rarely heard “Boyhood’s End” of Michael Tippett, and perennial favorite “Liebeslieder Waltzes” of Johannes Brahms.
