Event Information

This lecture-recital by acclaimed baritone Dr. Ryan C. Beal an esteemed performer, scholar, and educator with a distinguished national and international career - sheds light on the extraordinary art songs and operatic works created by composers imprisoned in Terezín, Czech Republic, under the Nazi regime. It also explores the broader context of Entartete Musik, which was banned due to the ethnicity or background of its creators. These remarkable artists produced music of beauty, resilience, and hope.
