Greylock ABC Slates Benefit Concert - January 15, 2008
WILLIAMSTOWN - A concert bringing together opera and the blues, "Lyrical Blue," will take place at the Williams College ‘62 Center for Theatre and Dance on Friday, Feb. 1, at 7:30.
Artists from the concert stages of North and South America, the Metropolitan and Glimmerglass operas, and performance halls across the country will perform a variety of musical selections that have in common the evocation of love, pain and longing.
The concert is presented as a benefit for Greylock ABC in honor of the late Dana Danforth, former longtime resident director of the A Better Chance program in Williamstown. The Lehman Community Service Council is the on-campus sponsor of the concert. Tickets at $35 each can be purchased at the ’62 Center box office by calling 413-597-2425.
"This concert will be like no other we've seen in Williamstown," said Carl Westerdahl, an ABC board member and one of the concert organizers. "There will be some real surprises as these great artists blend performances from different musical traditions. It will be creative, innovative, fun, and a great way to get rid of the winter blues."
Albert Cummings, Williamstown native and nationally known blues singer and guitarist, will join opera singers Craig Phillips, Alan Schneider and Beverley O'Regan Thiele; conductor and pianist Lanfranco Marcelletti Jr.; violinist Ann Marie Schwartz; and Cellist Petia Kassarova on the ’62 Center stage for the two-hour program. All of the artists are donating their performances.
Greylock ABC, a chapter of the national A Better Chance, Inc., is a not-for-profit organization that enables students from inner cities to attend Mount Greylock Regional High School and live in a group house in Williamstown, under the guidance of resident directors, tutors, high school teachers, counselors, local host families, and the ABC board of directors. All proceeds will be used to support the ABC program. |
