Watch and hear more from some of our soloists and MSO Music Director John DeMain about our Legacy concert weekend! Featuring the final works from Strauss and Mozart, we are thrilled to showcase not only our phenomenal orchestra, but our wonderful Madison Symphony Chorus (directed by Beverly Taylor) and four incredible vocal soloists: soprano Amanda Majeski, mezzo-soprano Kirsten Lippart, tenor Martin Luther Clark, and bass Matt Boehler.
If any of those soloists names sound familiar, Amanda recently performed with the Madison Opera as the title role in Salome, Kirsten is a native Madison resident and was a Madison Opera studio artist for 2 seasons, Martin recently performed with the Madison Opera as the title role in Candide, and Matt had his role debut as Figaro in Madison Opera’s Le nozze di Figaro and returned for Beethoven’s 9th Symphony.
