In this presentation, MSSU music faculty member, Diana Allen, will give a brief overview of the libretto and music of Dvorak's, Rusalka. A vocal quartet will follow to sing selections from this wonderful opera, including arguably the most famous Czech aria, Rusalka's "Song to the Moon".

Antonin Dvorak's Rusalka, which premiered 121 years ago, is among the most popular Czech operas. The libretto by Jaroslav Kvapil is based on Friedrich de la Motte Fouque's novella Undine and Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid. From the waters of Denmark to the forests of Bohemia, the water sprite was a celebrated member of the fairy tale pantheon. Although mystery and wonder surround the idea of the beguiling creature, it was not magic nor idolization that she desired - it was humanity and love. Rusalka (water nymph in Czech) falls in love with a human- the prince- and now yearns to be human.
