ROUND 2: Countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo (winner of Plácido Domingo’s international competition Operalia in 2012) and dancer Zack Winokur (creator of La Calisto, “one of the most elegant and imaginative shows seen in New York season,” Opera News) in Claudio Monteverdi’s Poppea
ROUND 3: Pianists Matthew Aucoin (Crossing, Artist-in-Residence at Los Angeles Opera, Harvard ’12) and Conor Hanick (a pianist that “defies human description,” Concerto Net; “a true champion of contemporary music,” NPR) in two pieces for two pianos: John Adams’ classic Hallelujah Junction, and Aucoin’s recent piece, Finery Forge
