Jessye Norman - In opera, in recital and in concert
appearances with symphony orchestras and chamber music collaborators, Jessye
Norman’s thoughtful music-making, innovative programming and fervent advocacy of
contemporary music share equal acclaim with the majesty of her voice. In recent
seasons, she has premiered the song cycle woman.life.song by composer Judith
Weir – commissioned for her by Carnegie Hall, with texts by Toni Morrison, Maya
Angelou and Clarissa Pinkola Estes – and performed the sacred music of Duke
Ellington in a dramatic musical production. She has also released her first jazz
CD, Jessye Norman Sings Michel Legrand. These varied expansions of her art have
received wide acclaim. Miss Jessye Norman sings an exciting and unusual operatic
repertoire that embraces composers ranging from Rameau and Berlioz to Schoenberg
and Bartok at opera houses around the world, most notably the Royal Opera House,
Covent Garden, La Scala, Vienna State Opera, Deutsche Oper Berlin and Lyric
Opera of Chicago, as well as the Saito Kinen, Aix-en-Provence and Salzburg
Festivals. Her distinguished association with Metropolitan Opera began with her
debut on the opening night of the company’s centennial season in 1983. Jessye
Norman's remarkable catalogue of recordings has won numerous international
awards.
Recognized worldwide for her remarkable humanitarian efforts
as well as her artistic accomplishments, Miss Jessye Norman became the youngest
recipient of the United States Kennedy Center Honor in 1997. She has received
some thirty honorary doctorates from colleges and universities, decorations and
distinctions from governments around the world and appointment in 1990 as an
honorary U.N. ambassador. In Augusta, Georgia, her hometown, the Amphitheatre
and Plaza overlooking the tranquil Savannah River have been named for Jessye
Norman.
