''The Antient Concert'' is a sixty-minute-long English language opera in one act by Daron Hagen with a libretto by Paul Muldoon. Hagen describes it as a "dramatic recital for four singers." ==Background and performance history== Hagen and Muldoon developed the opera as part of the Princeton Atelier at Princeton University.〔Quinoñes, Eric. ("Creative Collaboration Produces Original Opera" ), ''News at Princeton''. retrieved 2 March 2012.〕 The process culminated in Hagen conducting the Borromeo String Quartet and student performers at the McCarter Theatre in a fully staged workshop production directed by five student directors. After serving as the centerpiece of the 16 June 2007 "26th Annual Bloomsday on Broadway" at Symphony Space in New York City〔(Isaiah Sheffer's Blog ), retrieved 2 March 2012.〕 (during which it was broadcast live on WNYC and streamed on the Internet), it had its staged world premiere, directed by the composer, on 6 November 2007 in New York City.〔(The Antient Concert page at Daron Hagen's official website ), retrieved 2 March 2012.〕 Hagen's fourth and final opera with Muldoon, Hagen has described it as "our slender ''Capriccio''", and "a story about the collision of words, music, performance, sex, death, and nationalism."〔Hagen, Daron,(The Antient Concert ), ''Notes: a Composer's Life'', 31 January 2011〕 Chronology *Princeton Atelier staged workshop (7 April 2005), The Princeton Atelier, McCarter Theater, Princeton, New Jersey〔(Princeton Independent ), retrieved 2 April 2013.〕 *Concert broadcast premiere (16 June 2007), Bloomsday on Broadway XXVI, Peter Sharp Theater, Symphony Space, New York City *Staged world premiere (6 November 2007), The Phoenix Players, Century Center for the Performing Arts, New York City 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Antient Concert」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
