February 15th has been designated Susan B. Anthony Day, a commemorative holiday to celebrate the birth of Susan B. Anthony and women's suffrage in the United States. It seems a fitting day to announce that the World Premiere performance of Steven Mark Kohn's "The Trial for Susan B. Anthony" will be available to educators in March of 2021 in observance of Women's History Month. With gratitude to our educators who continue to inform and inspire, this program is available to schools free of charge and comes with a Teacher's Guide containing additional resources and lesson plans related to the subject and in correlation to state standards. ADA Artist Management and
MorningStar Music in partnership with
Austin Opera,
Berkshire Opera Festival,
Minnesota Opera,
Opera Colorado, and
San Diego Opera
are pleased support our educators during these challenging times.Having premiered on October 26, 2020 The Trial of Susan B. Anthony stars mezzo-soprano Adriana Zabala, joined by pianist Myra Huang, playing multiple roles, including a judge, two attorneys, one witness, and Susan B. Anthony herself in this seven-movement piece outlining the activist’s quest for justice. This premiere came amidst the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, inviting conversation about this milestone of democracy, along with the work that remains to achieve gender and racial equity.
