Winding up the series of Adams Vocal Master Classes, David Gordon was back at the helm for the final session. Gordon led off by reminding the audience that on Saturday, August 1, at 1:30 pm in Sunset Center Theater, there would be an opportunity to hear the four vocalists we were hearing today in the final event of the Adams Vocal Master Class, a concert honoring the 250th anniversary of the death of Georg Friedrich Handel. Performing with the four singers would be an ensemble of musicians from the Festival Orchestra. Once Again, Gordon paid tribute to the very fine assisting pianist Scott Dettra — who incidentally, blew us away at one point during the master class by instantly transposing at sight a difficult aria down a half step.
