Carnegie Hall – 8pm

Moïse et Pharaon by Gioachino Rossini

The Collegiate Chorale
American Symphony Orchestra
James Bagwell, Conductor

This opera-in-concert presentation is Rossini’s enthralling French-language setting – replete with romance, intrigue, jealousy, vengeance, and acts of God – of Moses and his brother Eliezer leading the Jews out of the land of Pharaoh and into freedom, with the help of plagues and the parting of the Red Sea.  The story is impassioned and the music is gorgeous.  Guest artists include James Morris, Kyle Ketelsen, Angela Meade, Eric Cutler, Marina Rebeka, Michele Angelini, Ginger Costa-Jackson, John Matthew Myers, Joe Damon Chappel, and Christopher Roselli, with the American Symphony Orchestra.

“Prelude Series” Lecture on Moïse et Pharaon by Rossini scholar Philip Gossett, November 16 at 6pm.
