Suffs is the Tony Award®-winning musical that's making history on Broadway! Crafted by the supremely talented Shaina Taub, she's shattered ceilings by becoming the first woman to single-handedly snag Tony Awards for both Best Book and Best Score in the same year. Beyond its Tony Award® glory, Suffs has clinched the title of Best Musical from the Outer Critics Circle, bagged a pair of Drama Desk Awards including one for Best Score, and it's been hailed as the season's most heart-stirring musical by the Chicago Tribune. This musical dives into the lives of the suffragist women, affectionately known as âSuffs.â These women weren't just intellectual giants in their pursuit for the voteâthey were complex beings, marked by their persistence, humor, and the fiery passion driving their cause. Suffs unfolds the tapestry of their camaraderie, the setbacks that tested them, and showcases the push-pull dynamics that either united or divided them. Venturing boldly into an equality struggle that echoes into today, Suffs stands as a theatrical behemoth, lauded by Forbes as a âmust-see,â and a stirring nudge reminding us that while progress is within reach, it's never a sure thing. Make your voice heard with our matching songbook, featuring 15 songs from the exhuberant score arranged for vocal line with piano accompaniment. Songs include: Finish the Fight ⢠Great American B**** ⢠How Long ⢠If We Were Married ⢠Keep Marching ⢠Let Mother Vote ⢠Lucy's Song ⢠The March (We Demand Equality) ⢠Show Them Who You Are ⢠Wait My Turn ⢠Worth It ⢠and more.

Old St. Patrick’s Church in Chicago observes a hallowed annual tradition called Siamsa na nGael, a Celtic celebration of songs, dance, and story. The organizers of this annual showcase of Irish talent saw fit on separate occasions to commission hailed Irish composer Liam Lawton to write three major works: Patrick the Shepherd Boy, Brigid of Kildare, and Kevin of Glendalough. Lawton, with the help of the combined choirs of Old St. Patrick’s, recorded several selections from these three works plus a number of newly composed songs to create his new CD, Sacred Land. This beautiful recording includes lush arrangements of songs like “Far Beyond,†“The House of the Lord,†“Sing of a Lady,†and many more. Song after song simply overflows with the hope, mercy, and strength that is found when one searches for God.

Barenreiter's publication of a new volume of theWorks of Gioachino Rossini, in collaboration with the Center for Italian Opera Studies at the University of Chicago, makes available an edition of the operaIl barbiere di Sivigliawhich meets modern demands. The editors have recently identified numerous carelessly edited places in the last critical edition by referring to additional sources. The greatest changes relate to the overture; for the new edition, no fewer than twenty different autograph manuscripts have been consulted. A detailed appendix containing alternative vocal parts, advice on ornamentation and compositions by Rossini significant in the performance history of the opera complete the volume. A 420-page Critical Commentary is published separately. With this, a critical edition is now available to interpreters, enabling them to perform Rossini's ,,Barber of Sevillewith the greatest possible confidence in the accuracy of the musical material. The performance material is available on hire, and a vocal score will be published at the end of 2009. Through 1829 Rossini was an extraordinarily prolific composer of operas, comic, serious, and semiserious, in Italian and French, as well as of a great deal of vocal and instrumental music. He composed sacred music, vocal treatises, cantatas. Then, for many different reasons, he wrote very little music for more than twentyfive years, if we except some songs and the ' Stabat Mater' . Only after he left Italy definitively for Paris in 1855 did he find his voice again. Between 1857 and 1868 a fresh group of masterpieces issued from his pen, the so-called ' Peches de vieillesse' (Sins of Old Age), including chamber music, songs, and the 'Petite Messe Solennelle'. Philip Gossett, General Editor of Works of Gioachino Rossini, is the Robert W. Reneker Distinguished Service Professor at The University of Chicago and a professordi chiara famaat the University of RomeLa Sapienza. He is also general editor of The Works of Giuseppe Verdi. Barenreiter in cooperation with the Center for Italian Opera Studies at The University of Chicago will publish ten volumes in the series Works of Gioachino Rossini, in critical editions, during the period 2007-2011. These are all volumes that were not issued in theEdizione critica delle opere di Gioachino Rossini.
