[NEohioPAL] Schubert - The Song Cycles

[N A C]

The third installment of Concerts at the Crossroads' spring series is coming 
this Mother's Day.  On Sunday May 13th at 5pm, Christopher Grundy and 
pianist Nathan Carterette will perform Schubert's "Schwanengesang," the 
collection of Schubert's last songs.  This is the final concert in the 
song-cycle series, with a four-hand piano concert of Schubert's music 
following in June.

       Christopher Grundy, baritone, has performed song recitals in the 
United States and Europe, and has a wide repertoire encompassing many 
periods, styles and languages.   He has performed as a soloist with many 
choral ensembles, inlucding the Choir of the St. Patrick's Cathedral in New 
York, and the Amor Artis Chorale with Johannes Somary.   Mr. Grundy was born 
in New York, and began his vocal studies there with John Mack Ousley, and 
his piano studies with John Contiguglia.  He completed his B.A. at Yale 
University , where he was awarded the Ben Cutler Vocal Scholarship.  During 
this time he conducted the Yale Russian Chorus, and was the Assistant 
Conductor of the Yale Glee Club, and appeared in leading roles with the Yale 
College Opera Company.   For two summers he performed at the AIMS festival 
in Graz, Austria, where he studied with Harold Heiberg.  Mr. Grundy takes a 
very active interest in the relationship between text and music, and 
recently has worked on this subject in the compositions of Gustav Mahler.   
He has collaborated regularly with Nathan Carterette since 1999.


Tickets are $10, and a wine reception with the artists follows the concert.
