"From the Stage at Krannert Center" was recorded last October in Foellinger Great Hall at Krannert Center.

Wolfgang's "3rd Violin Concerto", Camille's "5th Piano Concerto" and more, including Sunday's “From the Stage at Krannert Center: Song and Poetry with Nathan and Julie Gunn and the Jupiter String Quartet”.

This production is a bit different than most shows from Lyric Theatre at Illinois, as it’s a bit of a “greatest hits” show, featuring Lyric Theatre students, the U of I Symphony Orchestra, and the U of I Oratorio Society performing some of the best known arias from Verdi and other Italian opera composers.

Artists and producers with Champaign-Urbana ties walked away from Sunday's Grammy Awards empty-handed. Nominees included Champaign-based Archeophone Records (in two categories), renowned bariton U of I Lyric Theatre Director Nathan Gunn, and Urbana native Molly Netter, who was featured in a recording by the New York-based Clarion Choir. 

Performers and directors from the U of I Lyric Theatre's latest production join Illinois Public Media's Brian Moline in the latest episode of "Live from Studio F."  Monteverdi's "Poppea" opens Thursday night at Krannert Center for the Performing Arts.
