Gotham Chamber Opera: Sexy Stars Headline 2015 Season

Lee Frydby Lee Fryd
in Arts
Home Arts

Don’t wait for a fat lady to sing at Gotham Chamber Opera…unless she’s in her 20s. These sexy operas feature rising stars, intimate stagings, and interdisciplinary collaborations. Artistic Director Neal Goren has staged them in the Planetarium and the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, reimagined “The Princess and the Pea” as a Kardashian Reality Show, and worked with Diane Paulus, Mark Morris, and Moises Kaufmann.

Now, he will present a co-production with the Martha Graham Dance, based on Shakespeare’s “The Tempest,” featuring the world debut of Finnish Composer Kaija Saariaho’s 2004 Tempest Songbook and incidental music composed in 1695, attributed to Henry Purcell, that she selected. It will also include the abstract videos of celebrated Parisian Multimedia/Computer Artist Jean-Baptiste Barrière. The Tempest Songbook will be performed in The Grace Rainey Rogers Auditorium at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, March 27 – 29, 2015.

“It’s going to be a very abstract, musing on “The Tempest,” Goren told us. “The singers sing for different characters and the dancers reflect both the text, the characters and the singers themselves. The singer might start a gesture and the dancers continue on with that.”

Director and choreographer Luca Veggetti, who returns to collaborate with Goren after last season’s production of “The Raven,” brought Saariaho and husband Barriere in to meet Neal. “And I jumped at the chance to get us the world premiere of the song cycle,” Goren told us. “She’d be on any critic’s list of the five most important composers in the world today.” She will be the first woman composer to have her work performed by the Met in more than 100 years. “To do a premiere of hers is big news,” Goren said. He claims a bottle of champagne sealed the deal. But, in the 14 years since GCO’s inception, no artist has ever said “no” to Neal Goren. Partially, he feels, “because when I have someone brilliant to work with, I give them a lot of creative control. I get a lot of inspiration from collaborating with artists whose work I love.” Among the cognoscenti, Gotham Chamber Orchestra has the buzz.

It was Saariaho’s idea to mix her composition for period instruments with other songs based on the Tempest by the 17th Century composer Purcell. “The new pieces speak to the old pieces in a very interesting way, using a lute, harpsichord and early strings.”

Gotham Chamber Orchestra casts each production with new, rising stars. Goren finds them by judging competitions all over the country, and from his large network. “When they hear someone they think is really going places they contact me,” he says. “I help them go places. I bring them here.”

Nature Comes To Fruition During “Silent Journey”

Nature Comes To Fruition During "Silent Journey"

  • From Hollywood red carpets to Milan exhibits and Hamptons fashion shoots, Filbert Kung has photographed the world—but it’s his quiet, unguarded, and attentive nature that reveals the artist behind the lens.⁠ @filbert_kung 
⁠
I met Filbert Diego Kung at a Grey/Ven fashion event in Amagansett last summer. He’s one of those rare photographers who instantly puts you at ease—calm, composed, and naturally good at making anyone feel like they belong in front of his lens. Had I known then just how in-demand Filbert is in the fashion and photography world, I probably wouldn’t have asked him to snap a few shots of me goofing off on the red carpet. But maybe that makes me a model? Either way, it was my first glimpse of how effortlessly he captures people as they are. In my case, goofy-but-make-it-chic.⁠
⁠
Since then, I’ve seen him popping up around the Hamptons, often between flights to LA, Miami, or wherever the next big editorial or campaign takes him. Originally from the Philippines, Filbert has spent over fifteen years building a career that bridges Hollywood red carpets, high-fashion editorials, and fine art portraiture. ⁠

  • 30 Huntting Lane, East Hampton, NY 11937⁠
Saunders Exclusive: $7,250,000⁠
@romainehamptons

⁠
⁠
At the bend of Huntting Lane in East Hampton Village, a remarkably restored Queen Anne Victorian—now offered for sale—stands as impressive as it is improbable.⁠
⁠
Built in 1896 by James Edward Huntting and held by his family for over a century, the estate is a masterclass in American craftsmanship—built to endure and beautifully restored. Graceful gables, revived millwork, and preserved character bridge Gilded Age ambition, Hamptons high society, and highlight the enduring power of community in the Village. ⁠
⁠
Here, history feels alive—not in signs of wear, but rather in the lack thereof, a testament to the care that has returned the home to its original glory. Every detail has been honored, presenting a rare historic gem ready for its next chapter.⁠

  • Every year at the Hamptons International Film Festival, there is a film that captures the local East End experience. This year, many believe that film is ON THE END, written and directed by Ari Selinger. In a half-hour Zoom call, Ari Selinger shared the story of how his debut writer-director indie-drama film came about.⁠
⁠
He said, “I was location scouting all over New York, and I found myself on Navy Road (Montauk) back in 2011 with my production designer friend. We were two 20-year-old film students (NYU) looking for a shoddy auto repair shop that we could use to shoot a film. There I met this guy, Tom, in front of his very dirty property. He was fixing a car. He came up to the window and not only told us about numerous people to talk to… he just knew all these names, and he just seemed to be a resource. He’d always be whispering in my ear about this thing he was going through with the town, about this battle, about him trying to keep his house. And it totally went over my head at the time. I did not know very much about zoning laws and property values, and maybe I was a little bit cavalier about it, but back in 2016, there was a big piece in the New York Times on his story.”⁠

  • Sag Harbor resident, actor, writer, and teacher Josh Pais has spent decades exploring what it means to be fully present—on screen and in life. Known for his roles in Joker, Ray Donovan, the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and many others, he has more than 150 film and television credits to his name. He has now turned his focus inward with his new memoir, Lose Your Mind: The Path to Creative Invincibility, which was released on September 30, 2025.⁠
⁠
Drawing on his years of experience as founder of the Committed Impulse training method, Josh offers readers a bold invitation to release self-judgment, lean into all feelings, and connect with the spontaneous energy that fuels authentic creativity. His message—both playful and profound—challenges the myth of “good” and “bad” emotions and instead celebrates the full spectrum of human experience.⁠
⁠
Josh will visit Sag Harbor for a reading and book signing this Sunday, October 12th from 4:00–5:30 p.m. at Grenning Gallery (26 Main Street, Sag Harbor). ⁠
