chanda's violin teacher sang in a concert at carnegie hall this evening and since it began at 8 pm, after chanda's ballet lesson ended, we were able to go.
der weg der verheissung began rehearsals in salzburg in 1934 with max reinhardt directing, music by kurt weill and libretto by franz werfel. it sounds like it was an enormous undertaking with many clashing personalities and egos and too much money being spent. however, it did come to new york in 1937 as the eternal road and was a huge success with the public and the critics.
chanda's violin teacher sang with the collegiate chorale (a very large group as you can see in the first photo) and was happy to be singled out to sing "second angel." i think he's been with this group for a year or two now. we had missed a concert in the winter, so we were pleased it worked out to see this one. it was very beautiful and the audience was enthusiastic.
