ERIN WOOD, soprano
Jeremy Frank, piano
Erin Wood’s recent portrayals of Verdi and Wagner heroines have received praise for her “soaring soprano”, “immense voice full of grit at the bottom and transcendent radiance at the top”, and “volcanic outpouring of sound that was thrilling to behold”. Ms. Wood has replaced Deborah Voigt on short notice, both as Sieglinde in Wagner’s Die Walküre with Lyric Opera of Chicago and as Amelia in Un Ballo in Maschera with San Francisco Opera. With Lyric, Ms. Wood has also been seen as Lisa in The Queen of Spades, Gutrune and the Third Norn in Götterdämmerung, Ortlinde in Die Walküre, and supporting roles in Il Barbiere di Siviglia, Street Scene, Susannah and Macbeth. She was a featured artist in Lyric Opera of Chicago’s first-ever free concert at Grant Park, where she sang Mascagni’s Easter Hymn for an audience of 20,000 people.
Program will include works by Debussy, Chabrier, Wagner, Obrador and Bernstein.

"A sigh went skating on nocturnal ice"
It has long been known that the poetry of Christian Morgenstern is filled with music. However, it was not until the ninetieth anniversary of the poet’s death before a chamber music ensemble decided to name themselves after him. As a triumphant finale to a very successful year 2009, the Morgenstern Trio, was awarded the prestigious Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson International Trio Award, the top international award for piano trio. The prize includes more than 20 concerts in the U.S. (including Carnegie Hall, New York) and a CD production.
