OverviewThe exhibition will consist of nine sections, each designed to draw in visitors and create interest and excitement in opera, opera-making and opera-going.
Section 1. Threshhold/ Entrance AreaThis section will be geared towards drawing in visitors and piquing their interest as they pass the entrance on their way to and from classes. Its main element will be a sculptural wall with an LED wallpaper and flatscreen television. The wallpaper and television will be programmed to function in concert and catch the eye of passerbys. The video playing will be a trailer for the operas on view in Philadelphia, much the way that the Metropolitian Opera in New york posts trailers for each of its performances on its website.
Introduction This exhibition seeks to address a growing problem for performing arts venues in America, that of attracting and retaining younger audiences. The location of the Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery is ideal for addressing this issue, since it is situated in the middle of the Avenue of the Arts, since it is directly accross the street from many performance venues, (including the oldest opera house in America still in use for opera) and most importantly, since it has a natural audience of college-aged youths, particularly youths who already demonstrate an interest in the arts, in performance, and in cultural production. This project focuses on the history of opera production in Philadelphia because this city has a rich history of operatic performance that is often overlooked. The main goal of the exhbition will be to get its visitors accross the street and experiencing an opera for themselves. This mission meshes perfectly with the Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery’s own mission of interpreting “topics relating to arts and culture” and “engag[ing] its university community.”

Section 2. Opera-GoingThis section will focus on the cultural implications of visiting an opera at different points in Philadelphia’s history. Its main feature will be a set of manniquins dressed in reproductions of outfits appropriate to opera visitation from different points in time. Included will be two manniquins featuring contemporary outfits that might be worn by a young person today. Also in this section will be a case of opera-going accessories and graphic reproductions of two of Mary Cassatt’s paintings about opera-going.
Section 3. Opera SingersThis section will focus on four opera singers important to Philadelphia, telling compelling stories about their lives with photographs and audio. Some artifacts will be included as appropriate. The personalities featured have been chosen to represent a variety of people, time-periods and experiences, but common themes will link their stories together.
Section 4. Behind the ScenesThe fourth section will look at those people and institutions behind the scenes of opera, such as composers, librettists, impressarios, schools, set designers and opera houses. It will feature more personal stories, two set scenes with reproduction costumes, and a set of models of opera venues in Philadelphia.
Section 5.TimelineThe timeline in section 5 will give visitors a chance to see the chronology of opera in Philadelphia and learn interesting facts that may not fit in with the personal stories chosen elsewhere. It will also be a place to reinforce the learning which has happened elsewhere in the exhibition.
Section 6. Theater ExperienceThe theater experience will be the focal point of the exhibition, and will be the site of several activites. Not only will visitors be able to view HD screenings of opera performances, as is sometimes done in

movie theaters, they will be able to try their hand at opera in an opera karaoke experience, as well as meet occasionally with professional opera singers to learn their stories and get advice about their future careers.
Section 7. Opera NowThis section will focus on up-to-the-minute opera events in the Philadelphia region. It will feature posters of operas which are currently, or will soon be, performed, as well as tips and advice for unexperienced visitors looking to attend an opera. It will also feature the story of Stephen Costello, a recent alumnus of the University of the Arts who is an up-and-coming opera singer, a list of any classes in opera being offered the following semester, and a station where visitors can download opera music onto their mp3 players to listen to later. This section will provide visitors both with a role model for opera, and also with things that they can do immediately to participate in opera.
Section 8. Exit Experience This section will feature a paper chandelier in the style of Ingo Maurer’s Zettle Z lamp. The chandelier will be made up of slips of paper on which visitors have written comments about their opera experiences. The chandelier will be visible from the street, and catch the interest of passer-by.
Section 9. Student ArtThe final area will be set aside for student artwork about opera and the opera-going experience. This artwork could be created by a class of students, comissioned directly from students or created as part of a contest. Artwork could be rotated throughout the length of the exhibition, or stay for the duration, depending on the number of pieces submitted. Leaving space for student art will help to give students a personal connection to the exhibition and to opera. Ideally the students will research and experience an opera as part of their research for their artwork, encouraging learning outside of the exhibition as well as inside.

Audience In 2002, 25.3% of the U.S. opera audience was under the age of 35 years old, (Source: National Endowment for the Arts) but that age bracket makes up 47.8% of the American population. (http://www.census.gov) This exhibition seeks to target this under-represented audience and encourage them to participate in viewing or creating opera in the future. Philadelphia Opera will be targeted towards University of the Arts undergraduate and graduate students, and will have a secondary audience of tourists and other visitors to the Philadelphia area. University of the Arts students already demonstrate interest in performance, spectacle, drama, music and the arts, making them an ideal pool to reach out to.

Mission & GoalsMISSION Philadelphia Opera will present opera to an audience of young adults, educate them about its history here in Philadelphia, and inspire them to participate in viewing or producing opera in the future.
GOALS Visitors who would not previously have considered going to an opera (especially those between the ages of 17 and 35) will feel inspired to see an opera in the future.
Visitors to this exhibition will feel pride in the role that Philadelphia has had on opera in America.
OBJECTIVES Visitors will be able to name at least two of Philadelphia’s important opera institutions.
Visitors to Philadelphia Opera will understand basic opera terminology including: libretto, aria, operetta and recitative.
After the exhibition, visitors will be able to name at least two of the Philadelphian opera singers, composers, or aficionados discussed in the exhibition.

Opera
A collage of images illustrating the aesthetic of the exhibitionNTS
Aesthetic will draw on inspiration from traditional opera houses, but blend this older feel with a clean, modern aesthetic, especially through abstracted forms, such as the red ribbon motif. Design will draw inspiration from the neo-baroque trend in current interior design.

Walk-through Caroline enters the Anderson building, unusually early for class today. As she passes the door to the Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery on her right, she notices something unusual--”did that wall inside just start glowing?” she wonders. Curious, she shoulders her bag and enters the gallery. “The wallpaper really is lighting up in some kind of pattern!” She leans forward to get a better look at the wall when suddenly the last piece of the pattern lights up and the flatscreen hanging on the wall springs to life. In an action-packed thirty seconds or so she watches a dramatic sequence of clips from recent operas in Philadelphia-- “Hey, this isn’t quite what I expected an opera to look like,” she thinks.
The student notices several mannikins arranged down the ramp nearby and moves to walk amongst them. She pauses to examine some of the historical replicas of opera cloaks and dresses which the mannikins are sporting. Included in these mannikins are a pair dressed in contemporary outfits that one might wear to the opera today. “I think my sister has that dress,” she muses.
Caroline wanders past a nearby case filled with opera accessories such as kid gloves and opera glasses to look at reproductions of two of Mary Cassatt’s paintings of opera-goers. She glances at the label, “It’s interesting how just going to the opera was such a big deal back then.”
Caroline takes a sip of her latte and approaches a display nearby, featuring the life of acclaimed opera singer Marian Anderson. “Wow,” Caroline thinks,”It’s amazing how she was able to find such success in the face of adversity.” Curious to know what Marian’s voice sounded like, Caroline presses one of the buttons on the reader rail and listens to the audio broadcast of Marian’s famous concert at the Lincoln

Walk-throughMemorial. While she is listening, Caroline reads more about the event on the reader rail.
Next, she reads about and listens to a recording of Mario Lanza. Caroline notices a video of musical instruments playing and is drawn into the next area. Here she reads a bit about Oscar Hammerstein I and the Metropolitan Opera House here in Philadelphia. Then, she takes a seat and listens to music by Philadelphia natives, as well as composers who lived or went to school here, such as Gian Carlo Menotti, one of the first people to bring opera to television.
From here, Caroline is drawn to a pair of large dioramas placed side by side. On one there is a very traditional-looking set with a painted backdrop, “gas” footlights and a red velvet curtain, here Caroline reads about early set design in America and Carlos Ciceri (one of the first professional set designers in America) and his work here in Philadelphia. On the other side is a diorama depicting the set from the recent Philadelphia production of Madama Butterfly, she learns how it was designed by a contemporary artist named Jun Kaneko. She also is interested to learn about the other interesting ways that Madama Butterfly is tied to Philadelphia-- how the writer of the original story was from here, and how it was one of the first operas that Marian Anderson ever heard.
Before entering the theater area, Caroline stops to look at the models of various Philadelphia theaters. “Wow!” she thinks, “Philadelphia’s Metropolitan Opera House is so big compared to some of these... and I also didn’t know that the Academy of Music is the oldest grand opera house still in use in America!”
Caroline reads the instructional sign outside of the theater and then enters it to find it set up and ready for some

Walk-throughOpera Kareoke. Tentatively she steps up onto the stage and takes the microphone off of the hook, triggering the device to come on. Not sure if she’s ready for opera, she notices that several musicals and a few rock operas are also on the list. After a reassuring start with a song from Phantom of the Opera, Caroline decides to try one of the songs she heard Marian Anderson sing earlier in the exhibition. The interactive gives her tips on operatic singing before she begins and shows her how she is doing as she sings. Pleased with her efforts, Caroline moves out of the theater, and browses the posters about upcoming operas that line the far wall. “Maybe I will go to one of these,” she thinks wistfully.
Caroline checks out the last of the featured personalities, “This one is a Uarts alumnus,” she notes with interest. After reading about Stephen Costello, she downloads a song by him onto her ipod, as well as a podcast of other opera tunes to listen to later.
Before she exits, Caroline stops at the last exhibit- a chandalier made out of students’ experiences with opera. She reads a few before taking a slip of paper from the nearby table and adding her own. “I’m definitely going to check out one of those operas that are coming up,” she thinks as she makes her way out.

Un ballo in mascheraThe first opera given by the Metropolitan in New York to feature an African-American performer

Listen to clips from the broadcast of this performance (10 min)
Washington D.C. Marian’s fame as a singer allowed her to make important political contributions.
Throughout Marian’s lifetime she refused to let anyone hold her back from her dreams--with wonderful results. In addition to being the first African-American to perform with the Metropolitan Opera, she also became the first African-American to perform at the White House.
In 1939 Marian’s manager, Sol Hurok, tried to book Marian at Constitution Hall. The Daughters of the American Revolution, who owned the building, refused to let her perform because of her race. In response, Interior Secretary Harold Ickes arranged for Marian to perform at the Lincoln Memorial. At a time when segregation was still in place, a crowd of 75,000 gathered to hear her sing and the performance was broadcast via radio to homes around the nation. After this momentus performance, the DAR recanted and invited Marian to perform in Constitution Hall.
Marian mentored a young woman named Blanche Burton-Lyles who became the first African-American female to play with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, as well as the first African-American graduate of the Curtis Institute.
Marian Anderson played an influential role in Blanche’s musical career. It was Marian who reccommended Blanche to the Curtis Institute. They took her on an unlimited scholarship at the age of 11. When Blanche was 14 she entered and won the Young Audiences Competition run by the New York Philharmonic Orchastra. To celevbrate, Marian invited Blanche over to her house to listen to the official radio announcement of her victory.
Despite support from Marian and from her family, as an African-American woman Blanche found it impossible to advance her career as a classical pianist. Eventually she decided to pursue a different musical course and became a music teacher. Today Blanche is the Founder and President of the Marian Anderson Historical Society.

MarianAndersonThe first African-American toperform with the Metropolitan Opera in New York
Born and raised in South Philadelphia, Marian first begain singing in the choir of the Union Baptist church. The congregation there, recognizing her talent, created a fund dedicated to providing her with vocal instruction.
After high school, Marian applied to the Philadelphia Music Academy, (now a part of the University of the Arts) but was denied because of her race. Undaunted, she continued her studies with private tutors before winning a singing contest and a chance to sing with the New York Philharmonic.
From this point her career began to take off--she toured extensively in both the United States and in Europe, where she found a reprieve from the racial tensions of the time. Before her death in 1993 she had performed for several presidents, become a delegate for the United Nations, and been awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Listen to contemporary reviews of Elizabeth’s singing(7 min)
As she pursued her singing career, Elizabeth, like many African-Americans, found European audiences to be much more receptive to her performances than American audiences. American audiences tended to be more racially prejudiced, limiting opportunities for African-American performers.
Elizabeth’s wide vocal range and the quality of her voice impressed her audiences so much that she was often compared to the most famous singer of the time, “The Swedish Nightengale” Jenny Lind. Perhaps as a result, she developed the nickname “The Black Swan.”
