What better way to usher in the official start of summer, the summer solstice and Father’s Day than with two songs of summer, “Summertime” and

“O Sole Mio,” performed by three favorite ASC artists past and future.

Soprano Hein Jung and pianist Grigorios Zamparas are local favorites and past ASC artists.

Here’s their performance of “Summertime” from George Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess.

Anthony Nunziata sings the classic “O Sole Mio.” Anthony will be back this season with a new solo show, “Amore – The Greatest Love Songs.”

We’re going virtual!

We’ve officially jumped on the virtual bandwagon with our just-wrapped recording of Siren Song, filmed at the one-of-a-kind Fischer-Weisenborne residence (site of our popular Soiree Series concerts). With its sumptuous and acoustically perfect 70′ music room, recording and social distancing were a breeze.

The concert features soprano Johanna Fincher, mezzo-soprano Robyn Rocklein and pianist Michael Stewart, performing duets from the operas Lakme and The Marriage of Figaro as well as tunes from The Sound of Music, The King and I, My Fair Lady, Little Women and more.

Pictured L to R are our gracious host (and retired managing director), John Fischer; Michael Stewart, Johanna Fincher and Robyn Rocklein, who stepped together for a few split seconds to have their picture snapped; and our video engineer Larry Engler.

Details about the online screening of this performance and how to get tickets for it will be coming soon.
