This performance marks the west coast premiere of Amy Beach’s Cabildo! Amy Beach, arguably America’s most famous and celebrated female composer, composed her only opera in 1932. Never published, the work was not performed during the composer’s lifetime, and has only had a handful of performances since 1946. Shoreline’s production will be the West Coast premiere of this miniature masterpiece. Set in late nineteenth century New Orleans, Cabildo tells the mysterious story of the notorious pirate, Pierre Lafitte (sung by Trevor Eaden) and his lover, Lady Valerie (sung by Alexandra Picard). The story is set in the governor’s palace and jail of the Cabildo, and features a cast of singers, chorus, and narrator accompanied by a piano trio.

Presidents’ Day Message

Dear Colleague,

The College will be closed on Monday, February 20 in observance of Presidents’ Day. 

On this holiday, we honor the tradition of courageous leaders who have come before us to ensure our unalienable rights to life, liberty, justice, and equal protection under the law.

I hope you’ll also take a moment this holiday to remember that the qualities of leadership belong to all of us. Each of us can find ways to face challenges, plan for success, lift up others, and be leaders in our own right. It’s in these moments that we express the best of Shoreline.

With warm regards,

Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.

President
