Opera | Excerpts from the Opera Semmelweis, the Tragic Story of a Medical Pioneer

Sunday, December 9, 2012, 4:00 pm

Free

Brooklyn's AOP (American Opera Projects) will take the public behind the scenes of a new opera with musical excerpts, guest speakers and a Q&A with the creators. The tragic story of medical pioneer Dr. Ignác Semmelweis is the focus of an afternoon that will feature scenes from the new opera-theatre work Semmelweis and an historical commentary by surgeon and best-selling author Dr. Sherwin B. Nuland.

Semmelweis is a new three-act opera-theatre work with music by Ray Lustig and libretto by Matt Gray. The concert will feature acclaimed performance artist and opera singer Joseph Keckler, soprano Amy Justman (B'way's Company), tenor Michael Marcotte (Dog Days) and mezzo-soprano Kate Maroney (Einstein on the Beach), actors Harrison Unger and Marguerite French, with Music Director Charity Wicks on piano.
