One Leg at A Time: How the How the Trouser Role Became an Integral Item in the Mezzo-Sopranos Wardrobe
Description:
When they arent singing the roles of villains, wise women and seductresses, mezzo-sopranos take on a different character: young men. In this Distinguished Scholar Teacher Recital, faculty artist Delores Ziegler discusses the evolution of this curious operatic convention.
Along with students and faculty, she will demonstrate the various styles of pants roles.
This performance is in celebration of Zieglers Distinguished Scholar Teacher Award, which honors senior faculty who personify the University of Marylands image of the professorate through combined excellence in teaching and outstanding scholarly accomplishment.
