Pittsburgh Festival Opera presents Legends in the Limelight Featuring Csilla Boross

https://carnegiecarnegie.org/event/pittsburgh-festival-opera-presents-legends-in-the-limelight-featuring-csilla-boross/

Pittsburgh Festival Opera brings the power of world-class performances to humanize, energize and re-define opera as an experience that is up-close and personal, approachable, and relevant to today’s audiences.

Hungarian-born soprano Csilla Boross is one of the world’s leading contemporary dramatic sopranos today. She is famed for her iconic role of Abigaille from Verdi’s Nabucco, with which she exploded into international recognition. She has been hugely successful with other Verdi and Puccini roles such as Lady Macbeth, Aida, Violetta, Amelia Grimaldi, Amelia (Ballo in Maschera) Leonora di Vargas Elisabetta di Valois, Tosca, Madama Butterfly, Sister Angelica, Georgetta, Minni, Lucrezia Contarini and Manon, among others. Most notably, Ms. Boross is very well known to the Pittsburgh audiences for her roaring success as Abigaille in Verdi’s Nabucco with Pittsburgh Opera.

The 2024 election cycle is just around the corner, and that means news! We understand the world and make important choices based on the news we consume – but how do we know whether it’s really true?

Tonight, join professional journalists Alex Popichak and Nicole Pampena for an hands-on guide to understanding the news. How do journalists confirm that their facts are accurate? How can you recognize fake news, biased opinions, and deliberate misinformation? We’ll take a look at several real examples of true, fake, and biased news to test our news acumen.

The Fruits of Hate: A French City During the Holocaust – Gallery talk and reception

  • Andrew Carnegie Free Library & Music Hall Carnegie (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

https://carnegiecarnegie.org/event/the-fruits-of-hate-a-french-city-during-the-holocaust-gallery-talk-and-reception/

Dr. David Rosenberg’s exhibit “The Fruits of Hate: A French City During the Holocaust” is open for its premiere exhibition at a public library in the United States from October 2 through November 30. Following the stories of the Jewish residents of Amiens, France during the Holocaust, this exhibit delves into questions of official, cultural, and religious Jewish identity. The use of identification cards, personal correspondence, photos, and audio recordings bring a compelling immediacy to the exhibit.

Tonight, join Dr. Rosenberg and French-language majors from Grove City College to learn about the research behind this project, the lives of its subjects, and to hear new English translations of personal and official accounts of the roundup previously available only in French.

In January 2024 the city of Amiens will officially remember the 80th anniversary of the roundup and deportation to death camps of its Jewish citizens, and Dr. Rosenberg’s exhibit will be on display in the city’s main public library. In Pittsburgh, where the worst anti-semitic attack in American history occurred on October 27, 2018, remembering and engaging with the atrocities of the Holocaust finds an increased urgency and importance.

Registration is appreciated, but walk-ins are welcome. To register, please click here: https://www.eventkeeper.com/code/ekform.cfm?curOrg=CC&curID=667148
