Lakes Area Music Festival – Open Rehearsal Discussion: Julia Bullock, Soprano

August 23, 2018 @ 3:00 am - 12:00 pm

We know you love watching our world-class performances each summer! As you can imagine, there is a lot of hard work that goes into what you hear coming from our stage. Prior to coming, musicians spend hours perfecting their own part. Then, upon arrival in the Lakes Area, we spend about five hours each day rehearsing with the full ensembles.

This year you are invited to come and witness first hand the hard work that goes into each performance. The doors to Tornstrom Auditorium will be open at the first rehearsal for each concert this summer, giving you a glimpse at how our musicians work from the initial read through toward the final product you will hear a couple days later.

  • 1:15-1:45pm   Musicians led discussion
  • 2pm                       Rehearsal begins in Tornstrom Auditorium

Soprano Julia Bullock is recognized as an “impressive, fast-rising soprano… poised for a significant career” (The New York Times). Equally at home with opera and concert repertoire, she has captivated and inspired audiences through her versatile artistry, probing intellect, and commanding stage presence. Opera News extols, “Bullock’s radiant soprano shines brightly and unfailingly… Most compellingly, however, she communicates intense, authentic feeling, as if she were singing right from her soul.”

This season Miss Bullock makes a San Francisco Opera debut in the world premiere of Girls of the Golden West composed by John Adams to a libretto by Peter Sellars and she joins Dutch National Opera in a company premiere of Simon McBurney’s production of The Rake’s Progress under the direction of Ivor Bolton. The soprano makes a Santa Fe Opera debut as Kitty Oppenheimer in a new Peter Sellars production of Doctor Atomic by frequent collaborator John Adams and she tours North America in recital with performances under the auspices of Boston Celebrity Series, Cal Performances, Berkeley, University of California Santa Barbara Arts & Lectures, Carnegie Hall, Harriman Jewell Series, and Spivey Hall amongst others. No less impressive, Julia Bullock joins Andris Nelsons and the Boston Symphony Orchestra in a Bernstein Gala to launch the 2017-18 season and sings Pamina in concert performances of Die Zauberflöte with Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
