SUMMARY:In Search of the Lost Maestro: Rediscovering Edmond Dédé
DESCRIPTION:In Search of the Lost Maestro: Rediscovering Edmond Dédé    \nThursday\, March 19\, 2026 \n6:00 PM – 8:00 PM \n \nThe French Library \n53 Marlborough Street \nBoston\, MA 02116 \nTickets: $18 / $14 French Library Members\nLearn More \nREGISTER\nPresented by The French Library in partnership with Boston Lyric Opera.  \nDid you know that for more than a century\, one of America's greatest operas was lost to history?  \nBorn in New Orleans in 1827 as a free person of color\, Edmond Dédé became one of the most accomplished classical musicians of the 19th century. Trained in the European tradition and deeply rooted in Creole culture\, he built a remarkable career in France\, where he conducted orchestras and composed nearly 150 works.  Yet his greatest achievement\, a four-act French grand opera titled Morgiane ou le Sultan d'Ispahan\, was never performed during his lifetime.  \nMore than a century later\, Morgiane was rediscovered in the archives of Harvard University\, where librarian Andrea Cawelti uncovered the handwritten score. This extraordinary find sparked an international effort to restore and bring Dédé's long-forgotten masterpiece to the stage.  \nIn 2025\, Morgiane finally premiered in New Orleans\, followed by performances in Washington\, D.C.\, and at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York\, marking a historic moment in American music history.  \nFrench filmmaker Marguerite de Bourgoing will present her ongoing documentary research on Edmond Dédé and the remarkable journey of Morgiane. She will be joined by Andrea Cawelti of Harvard University\, who will share the story of the manuscript's discovery. The evening will also feature recorded musical excerpts from Morgiane\, from the newly released audio by Opera Lafayette. \n \nThe conversation will be moderated by Morgan Beckford\, Director of Learning at Boston Lyric Opera\, a soprano committed to broadening access to opera and celebrating diverse musical voices.  \nThis event offers a rare opportunity to rediscover a forgotten master and celebrate a powerful chapter of transatlantic and African American musical history. \n \nThis event will be presented in English and welcomes all interested attendees. The presentation will be followed by a Q&A with the audience\, and a reception with light refreshments.

SUMMARY:Song of the Earth (Das Lied von der Erde)
DESCRIPTION:Composed in the shadow of profound personal tragedy\, Gustav Mahler’s Song of the Earth (Das Lied von der Erde) is a meditation on nature\, longing\, and farewell. Presented in Schoenberg’s chamber arrangement\, director Anne Bogart’s new production uses projections\, light\, and immersive staging to invite you into the emotional core of the music while crafting a vivid sensory experience of beauty\, fragility\, and impermanence. BLO’s Opera + Community Studios provides a 250-seat setting designed for immediacy\, creating a rare opportunity to encounter Mahler’s farewell up close — fleeting\, intimate\, and unrepeatable. \nArrive early for the pre-show experience – a threshold between worlds. We invite you to check your coat and your day at the door and enter a curated space rich with sound and ambiance as you tune into the resonance of the art\, the community that has gathered\, and the story that is about to unfold. \nLEARN MORE
