SUMMARY:Performance:La Rondine (The Swallow)
DESCRIPTION:*La Rondine* is a bittersweet comedy from one of the best-loved composers of Italian opera. The story follows the love life of courtesan Magda\, who flies away from her wealthy\, pampered life with the unromantic Rambaldo in favor of a passionate affair with the younger (and poorer) Ruggero – disguising her identity as she does so. When two visitors from her past appear\, Magda must wrestle with the question of who she truly is and what she wants.\n\nMusic by Giacomo Puccini\nLibretto by Giuseppe Adami\n\nConducted by Kirk Severtson\nDirected by Stephanie Havey\n\n–––\n*Parking / Traffic alert for attendees:*\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/2026-construction

SUMMARY:Performance:John Cowan Trio
DESCRIPTION:The voice of newgrass\n\nWhen John Cowan and Luke Bulla perform together\, their shows reflect 25 years of shared history\, musical trust\, and genuine friendship. Blending New Grass Revival (and more) favorites with old and new originals\, they pair masterful picking\, rich harmony\, and stories that are heartfelt\, funny\, and hard-earned. Cowan calls Bulla “one of the most beautiful gifts” of his long musical life\, while Bulla\, inspired by Cowan since his youth\, considers sharing the stage a “dream come true” and a source of “immense gratitude and honor.” Together\, they deliver music rooted in gratitude\, joy\, and deep mutual respect. This evening they perform as a trio with Sam Leslie.
