On Friday, March 7, the Longy Vocal Studies Department and Longy’s Orchestra I.S. teamed up under the baton of Cailin Marcel Manson, Chair of Vocal Studies, to present a diverse program of arias, duets, and trios. Spanning four centuries of music, the evening featured works by a diverse selection of composers, including Ludwig van Beethoven, Enrique Granados, Julia Perry, Federico Moren Torroba, and a self-performed composition by Longy student Marie Johnson, MM ’26. It was a breathtaking evening of masterful singing and dramatic tellings from the operatic, oratorio, and concert canons.
