SYMPHONY #90

Our first roundtable discussion featured Oklahoma Haydn Festival's own Jose Batty (personnel manager) and Jim Waddelow (artistic director/conductor) discussing Symphony #90, which we will be performing in the summer of 2021.  Both our speakers included enlightening historical details and analysis highlighting that Haydn was indeed a funny guy.

​LA CANTERINA
Our final roundtable discussion was led by Afton Wooten, who explored feminist issues in the performance history of Haydn's comic opera La Canterina. This presentation sparked a wonderful conversation around some tough questions about ethical and artistic issues involved in performing composers or works with controversial or problematic associations.
