SUMMARY:Judy Collins Duo: Wildflowers Tour
DESCRIPTION:We’re celebrating the anniversary of the Wheeler’s 1984 Grand Re-Opening with two amazing concerts in one weekend.  On Saturday night\, Judy Collins returns to the stage with her Wildflowers Tour. In honor of the monumental Grand Re-Opening\, all tickets are priced at $19.84. \nJudy Collins has long inspired audiences with sublime vocals\, boldly vulnerable songwriting\, personal life triumphs\, and a firm commitment to social activism. In the 1960s\, she evoked both the idealism and steely determination of a generation united against social and environmental injustices. Five decades later\, her luminescent presence shines brightly as new generations bask in the glow of her iconic 55-album body of work\, and heed inspiration from her spiritual discipline to thrive in the music industry for half a century. \n“You could argue Collins has earned that ‘legend’ distinction as much by interpreting and inspiring songs as she has by writing or singing them…” – Edmonton Journal \nThe award-winning singer-songwriter is esteemed for her imaginative interpretations of traditional and contemporary folk standards and her own poetically poignant original compositions. Her stunning rendition of Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now” from her landmark 1967 album\, Wildflowers\, has been entered into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Judy’s dreamy and sweetly intimate version of “Send in the Clowns\,” a ballad written by Stephen Sondheim for the Broadway musical A Little Night Music\, won “Song of the Year” at the 1975 Grammy Awards. She’s garnered several top-ten hits gold-and platinum-selling albums. Recently\, contemporary and classic artists such as Rufus Wainwright\, Shawn Colvin\, Dolly Parton\, Joan Baez\, and Leonard Cohen honored her legacy with the album Born to the Breed: A Tribute to Judy Collins. \n

SUMMARY:Wheeler Associates and Wheeler Opera House present Emmylou Harris
DESCRIPTION:A 14-time Grammy winner and Billboard Century Award recipient\, Emmylou Harris’ contribution as a singer and songwriter spans 40 years. She has recorded more than 25 albums and has lent her talents to countless fellow artists’ recordings. In recognition of her remarkable career\, Harris was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2008 and earned a Grammy Lifetime Achievement award in 2018.  Wheeler Associates and the Wheeler Opera House present Emmylou Harris for a one-night-only concert in our historic venue\, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the 1984 Grand Re-opening of the Wheeler. \nHarris is known as much for her eloquently straightforward songwriting as for her incomparably expressive singing. Admired through her career for her talent as an artist and song connoisseur\, Harris shook up country radio in the 1970s\, and established herself as the premiere songwriter of a generation selling more than 15 million records and garnering 14 Grammy Awards\, three CMA Awards\, and four Americana Awards. \nHarris is one of the most admired and influential women in music. She has recorded with such diverse artists as Linda Ronstadt\, Daniel Lanois\, Bob Dylan\, Mark Knopfler\, Neil Young\, Gram Parsons\, Willie Nelson\, Dolly Parton\, Roy Orbison\, Ryan Adams\, Beck\, Elvis Costello\, Johnny Cash\, Lucinda Williams\, Lyle Lovett and Rodney Crowell. Few artists have achieved such honesty or have revealed such maturity in their writing. Forty years into her career\, Harris continues to share the hard-earned wisdom that—hopefully if not inevitably—comes with getting older\, though she’s never stopped looking ahead. \nA longtime social activist\, Harris has lent her voice to many causes. Most passionately to animal welfare. In 2004 she established Bonaparte’s Retreat with the goal of rescuing shelter dogs and adopting them into forever homes. To this day\, Bonaparte’s Retreat continues to save dogs most in need at Metro Nashville Animal Care and Control and at municipal shelters in surrounding counties. \n**Ticket buyers who buy tickets to Wheeler Opera House shows through any other channels\, including ticket brokers or other third parties\, should be aware that the Wheeler cannot reprint\, replace\, or exchange tickets purchased in this way\, and cannot contact those patrons with important show information.

SUMMARY:Aspen Music Festival and School | Matthew Aucoin: Music for New Bodies
DESCRIPTION:Premiered in April 2024\, this major new work is from the creative team of MacArthur award-winning composer Matthew Aucoin\, whose commissioning credits include the Metropolitan Opera\, Carnegie Hall\, and Lyric Opera of Chicago\, and director Peter Sellars\, celebrated for his operatic collaborations with John Adams\, Tyshawn Sorey\, and the late Kaija Saariaho. Inspired by the writings of visionary poet Jorie Graham and pioneering environmentalist Rachel Carson\, Aucoin and Sellars’s new work offers an immersion in vast planetary processes. \nThey explain: “We follow the migration of eels to the depths of the Atlantic Basin; we hear the voice of the ocean floor itself\, speaking with superhuman pressure and force; we experience humankind’s impact on our planet\, and we also sense the presence of cycles so immense that they are beyond human influence.” \nA co-commission of the DaCamera ensemble\, Shepherd School of Music\, LA Opera\, American Modern Opera Company (AMOC)\, and Aspen Music Festival & School\, Music for New Bodies is scored for five vocal soloists and an 18-piece instrumental ensemble.
