Pauline Tamale's Doctor of Musical Arts recital comprises three main selections from Giovanni Pergolesi, Giacomo Puccini, and Jake Heggie, featuring soprano Courtney Schwalbe; mezzo-soprano Pauline Tamale; Barbara Buer on pipe organ; and Katie Leung on piano. All three selections cover a moment of suffering in a woman's life that often leads to a form of redemption. The composer Giovanni Pergolesi meditates on the suffering of Mary, Jesus Christ's mother, during the crucifixion. This work features two voices (soprano and mezzo-soprano) and the organ to reflect the distinctive style of the 18th century and Neapolitanism. Puccini was known for his soaring vocal melodies and will feature in both arias and duets from Suor Angelica between Angelica and La Zia Principessa of the suffering one has encountered and separation from their loved one due to their pasts. Lastly, Jake Heggie's intertwined melodies between a mother and a daughter's relationship during and after one has passed on and the impact that remains.
