Performance and Opera Talk: “The Acting Singer” with Jay Lesenger

Jul 28, 2026

This talk brings the transformative art of the singing actor to the Hudson River’s most storied creative retreat, the Catwalk Institute; an ideal setting for an afternoon of song and string quartets on Tuesday, July 28 at 3:00pm.

“The Acting Singer” is the acclaimed acting masterclass led by veteran opera director Jay Lesenger. It teaches vocalists to inhabit a role completely — to move beyond beautiful sound into honest, dramatically compelling performance.

This program also features Mezzo-soprano Julia Bentley and pianist Tatiana Lokhina.

Throughout the festival, participants present outreach concerts and master classes across the Berkshires, Hudson Valley, and Catskills, including a performance and master class partnership at Catwalk and Beattie Powers Place in Catskill, NY.

No need to register. We look forward to seeing you!
