Opera watch.(upcoming events, awards, debuts)
1. A red-letter night in the Berlioz bicentennial year will be December 5, when SUSAN GRAHAM sings Les Nuits d'Ete at Carnegie Hall with DONALD RUNNICLES and the Orchestra of St. Luke's. For tickets to the program, which will also include Mendelssohn's The Hebrides and Mozart's "Jupiter" Symphony, call 212-247-7800. After Graham waltzes through The Merry Widow for Houston Grand Opera (Jan.-Feb. 2003), she will commence a seven-city recital tour that takes her back to Carnegie Hall for her solo recital debut there (April 14). The mezzo makes her third Carnegie Hall appearance of the season in May (16, 18), for Mozart's Mass in C Minor with JAMES LEVINE and the MET Orchestra. Summer brings Graham to Santa Fe Opera, for her first performances of Offenbach's La Belle Helene.
2. On September 16, GRAMOPHONE Magazine's 2002 Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to MIRELLA FRENI at a special reception in the flagship showroom of BULGARI on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. The event marked the first time that any Gramophone award was announced in advance of the magazine's annual award ceremony, held this year at London's Barbican on September 30. Freni, who was in New York rehearsing Act II of Fedora for the Met's opening-night gala at the time of the presentation, has no plans to retire any time soon, revealing in a New York Times interview on September 23 her enthusiastic affection for her newest role, Joan of Arc in Tchaikovsky's THE MAID OF ORLEANS.
