  • Notes: Sheepscot Valley Chorus Welcomes New Singers The Sheepscot Valley Chorus begins their 34th season when rehearsals commence Tuesday, September 9th, 7:00-9:00 at the Wiscasset Congregational Church on Route 1. With a long history of community music making, the Chorus welcomes and encourages new singers to join us. Singers wishing to participate may call director Linda Blanchard at 207-380-2768, or simply come to the first rehearsal, voice at the ready. Our major works this fall are the beautiful and lively Magnificats (Song of Mary) of baroque composer Francesco Durante and classical composer Franz Schubert. The Durante has been attributed erroneously to Pergolesi (who was Durante’s student), so music lovers may be familiar with the work under Pergolesi’s name. Singers will enjoy working on these works together, as the differences between the baroque and classical settings are quite striking, with much variety. Both pieces will be accompanied by a professional orchestra and feature professional soloists. The second half of the program will include a mixture of classical works and lighter holiday fare. Sheepscot Valley Chorus is directed by Linda Blanchard and accompanied by Sean Fleming, both of Damariscotta. The Chorus will perform their concert Sunday, December 7th at 3:00 p.m., as part of the Harbor Lights Festival in Boothbay Harbor. Please join us!

Anthony Antolini and Sean Fleming will play an organ duet by Louis Meyer and Myron Roberts’s Sonata for Piano and Organ. Roberts, 1912-2004, was a longtime mentor to Antolini.

  • Notes: The Legend of Jim Cullen weaves storytelling, drama and history, songs and musical numbers, dance and movement into a spectacle driven dramatic musical. Our production evokes a world of vaudeville, carnival or early American theater. With an ensemble of players supporting the story told by the central character, Professor Bateman, the play arcs in style from vaudeville to realism to fantasy in scenes that include a river baptism on the ice in New Brunswick, a log drive, an axe murder, and a lynching. Perspectives on how legends grow, personal responsibility, and multiple viewpoints weave around Professor Bateman’s examination of the question: “What is the soul of man?” The music landscape for Jim Cullen presents a broad aesthetic; while rooted in traditional music appropriate to the period, the approach includes modern sounds, a strong Broadway feel, large choral pieces and character driven solos. In our workshops and auditions, comparisons have been made to Floyd Collins, Big River and other musicals deeply rooted in American lore. At the same time, the play delves into modern myth with a visual spectacle that combines a sense of place with an urgent sense of storytelling. MATINEE ~ JULY 27 @ 3:00pm EVENINGS: JULY 24-26, 31 & AUGUST 1-2 @ 7:30pm
