MUSIC The Atlanta Opera: Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves: Georges Bizet and Carmen Tuition: $200 Instructor: Carter Joseph, Founder of “Opera 101” 4 sessions: Sat, Oct 23–Nov 13 / 7:00–9:00 p.m. Like most groundbreaking works, Georges Bizet’s Carmen was poorly received at its premiere. The composer died shortly thereafter, and would never realize that his opera would usher in a new age of realism, not only on the stage, but in all the arts. Carmen would rightly earn it place as one of the world’s most famous operas. Romanticism, with its gods and legends, was on the way out, and the human condition was now exposed unashamedly, warts and all, with passions are laid bare. The score is one memorable tune after another, connected to an over-arching vision, Carmen presents us with an arresting story of real people, and leads us unrelentingly to its inevitable tragic conclusion. 22 Register today: ece.emory.edu Beginning Guitar Tuition: $160 CEUs: 0.6 Instructor: Matthias Young 6 sessions: Wed, Sep 26–Oct 31 / 6:45–7:45 p.m. 6 sessions: Wed, Nov 7–Dec 19 / 6:45–7:45 p.m. By learning the guitar as an instrument with no boundaries, you’ll learn to focus on how sounds are created, instead of being limited to one style.
