George London Foundation for Singers
The Morgan has partnered with the George London Foundation for Singers since 1995 on a series of vocal recitals and hosts the annual Competition Finals. This season of performances are dedicated to the memory of Nora London (1924-2022). 

Raehann Bryce-Davis has been hailed by The New York Times as a “striking mezzo soprano” and by the San Francisco Chronicle for her “electrifying sense of fearlessness.” In the 2021-22 season, Ms. Bryce-Davis made notable house debuts at the Metropolitan Opera in Stravinsky’s The Rake’s Progress, at La Monnaie de Munt, Brussels, as La Zia Principessa in Suor Angelica, and at the Glimmerglass Festival singing Azucena in Il trovatore. She returned to both Los Angeles Opera and the Staatstheater Nürnberg as Azucena in Il trovatore, and to Opera Ballet Vlaanderen as Der Komponist in Ariadne auf Naxos. Bryce-Davis will be performing Amy Beach’s Three Browning Songs; Richard Wagner’s Wesendonck Lieder; three songs from Peter Ashbourne’s Fi Mi Love Have Lion Heart based on Jamaican folk songs; songs by Melissa Dunphy, Margaret Bonds, and Florence Price; and the world premiere of Maria Thompson Corley’s “The Beauty in my Blackness.”

The event will take place in the Morgan's Gilder Lehrman Hall. By entering the museum, you agree to our updated Visitor Guidelines and Policies. Masks are required for attending all public programs.
