Southampton Cultural Center

In a two-lecture series, Prentiss Dunn, Music Professor at Webster University, Vienna, Austria and frequent guest lecturer in the Hamptons, explores the evolution of Giuseppe Verdi's dramatic and musical genius in two sublime but very different works.

Using Franco Zeffirelli's highly-acclaimed film versions of both "La Traviata" and "Othello' and his own analytic and pianistic skills, Mr Dunn leads us in an entertaining and informative exploration into the mind and methods of one of operas greatest creators.

Tickets: $ 10
The second lecture is scheduled Saturday, March 6th.
