SUMMARY:Workshop: A Day in the Life of an Opera Singer
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered why some singers are universally loved\, and what makes their voices so captivating? Or\, perhaps you’ve wondered whether you could learn to develop your own voice. Find out on Wednesday\, August 27\, at 11 am in the Winn Room\, in a journey into the extraordinary world of professional singing with soprano Gabriella Rodmac. Sponsored by the Cultural Arts Commission and Coronado Public Library\, the event is free and open to the public. \nAugust 16\, 2025. Gabriella Rodmac performed in “An Operatic Tribute” in the Winn Room. Photo by Dawn Richards\nGabriella\, who divides her work between Italy and San Diego\, first wowed Coronado audiences three years ago with a Valentine’s Day concert\, “Seasons of Love\,” at the Spreckels Center\, followed by last year’s solo performance of an “Operatic Tribute to Tosti” in the Winn Room. Last week\, she again filled the Winn Room’s Summer Festival Concert with “An Afternoon of Opera.” \nSoprano Gabriella Rodmac performs in the Winn Room’s Summer Concert Series. Photo by Dawn Richards\nOf course\, each person’s voice and musical preference is unique. The field of music psychology explores the many factors influencing how music is perceived\, performed\, and responded to. For example\, genre preferences can be shaped by one’s geographical region\, cultural background\, and personality traits\, such as being an introvert or extrovert. People may connect with music that resonates with their personal experiences or evokes significant memories. An evocative ballad can draw us into the song\, creating a “narrative transportation\,” where we feel personally involved in the story. \nA singer’s particular voice brings yet another dimension to listeners’ appeal. As a follow-up to last week’s concert\, Rodmac is presenting the 60-minute interactive workshop for audiences to discover why vocalists like Luciano Pavarotti\, Maria Callas\, and Frank Sinatra continue to move audiences decades after their performances. \nAs she explains\, it’s “both the objective technical standards and subjective artistry that make each singer unique\, proving that while vocal training is a precise science\, great singing remains beautifully\, mysteriously human.” \nThe soprano will also provide a glimpse into the daily life of an opera singer\, showing what it takes to transform the human voice into a “superhuman instrument capable of filling opera houses without amplification.” She’ll dish on daily vocal exercises\, along with warm-ups and wind-downs for pre- and post performances\, plus the linguistic mastery and athletic discipline required to run through grueling opera productions. Listening to comparisons will help participants develop their ear and learn to distinguish between good and great voices. Then\, those who are serious about singing will have the chance to participate in a few professional vocal warm-ups and perhaps even try a snippet of a song together\, followed by professional tips on how to develop their own singing abilities. And for those not quite ready for using their own voices\, they have the option to simply sit back\, listen\, and enjoy. \nYou won’t want to miss this unusual and engaging workshop. As Gabriella assures us\, “No musical background required—just bring your curiosity!” \nWritten by Dawn Richards

SUMMARY:Autumn Concert Series: Lori Bell
DESCRIPTION:The Library’s Autumn Concert Series takes place on Fridays from September 5 to October 31. Each concert will begin at 1 p.m. in the Winn Room. Doors will open 15 minutes prior to the performance. On September 19\, we will have Lori Bell on the flute. She will be playing From Bach to Bebop\, including songs by Bach\, Telemann\, Piazolla\, Debussy\, Hoover\, and more. \n\nAcclaimed flutist and a three time Global Music Award recipient\, Brooklyn native Lori Bell is a flutist and composer of admirable depth and broad musical sympathies. A resident of San Diego\, she has contributed to the development of higher standards of performance while earning acclaim from both peers and critics for her artistry on stage and in recordings. \nIn 2016 Lori paid heartfelt tribute to her family and birthplace on her critically acclaimed album ‘Brooklyn Dreaming’ earning four star ratings from Jazz Journal UK\, Jazz Times\, the Los Angeles Times (four and a half stars) and Downbeat\, which chose it as “Best Albums of 2016.” Huffington Post also chose ‘Brooklyn Dreaming’ for their “Best of Jazz 2016”. Bill Milkowski wrote in the March 2016 issue of Downbeat: “Bell flaunts prodigious chops on both C flute and alto flute\, though her pen might be mightier than her sword. Her originals all reveal a wide harmonic palette\, a sophisticated rhythmic sensibility and a refined sense of dynamics\, along with an urge to swing.” Veteran jazz critic Scott Yanow chose it as one of his Top 25 Best jazz CD’s of 2016. It also won a Global Music Award for Outstanding Achievement for compositions and arrangements. \nHer most recent album project released in 2024 is a tribute to the legendary saxophonist and composer\, Joe Henderson. The Lori Bell Quartet – Recorda Me; Remembering Joe Henderson was selected at Jazz Congress in NYC for Jukebox Jury\, received international press\, and was selected Top 10 Jazz Critics Poll in Cadence Magazine\, Top 10 Essential Releases by jazz critic Scott Yanow\, and Best Jazz Albums of 2024 in All About Jazz. \nLori has toured in Asia\, including Singapore and Hong Kong. She has also performed in high profile ensemble settings at The Kennedy Center in Washington\, DC\, SOKA Performing Arts Center\, The Wadsworth Theatre at UCLA\, Birdland NYC\, The Blue Note NYC\, SFJAZZ in the Joe Henderson Lab\, and most recently\, on a project of jazz arrangements and classical compositions for the Los Angeles Philharmonic Music Library. She has performed three times at the Gala for the National Flute Association. \nEqually fluent in both jazz and classical idioms\, Lori is devoted to chamber music: the breadth of classical repertoire for flute and piano she has recorded and performed with her stellar musical partner\, Diane Snodgrass\, especially showing that commitment. The album ‘Night Soliloquy’ features 20th century French and American repertoire. “While there are many attractive features to Bell’s performances\, the most important one is that she is a storyteller. This CD is highly recommended not only for the repertoire but for the captivating performances by Bell and Snodgrass.” ~ Flute Talk Magazine \n“Lori Bell is a Pearl Artist\, but I hadn’t heard of her before. She is a fantastic player and the run down to a low B in her own arrangement of the Boulanger will be a delight for any flutist to hear.” ~ American Record Guide \nLori has also performed with the International Orchestra\, Cabrillo Chamber Orchestra\, and various chamber ensembles including ‘Night People’ featuring music by composer Joe Garrison which she produced three albums with. In addition to her global renown as a performer and recording artist\, Lori is a respected force in music education.
