Todd DuncanlPi Deadline
For Yearbook
Sings Here
In Symphony
Versatile baritone Todd Dun
can, the original Porgy in Gersh
win's folk-opera "Porgy and
Bess," appears Tuesday as solo
ist with the Lincoln Symphony
Orchestra. This will be the first
concert of the orchestra this sea
son, as well as Mr. Duncan's
first appearance in Lincoln.
Altho he had done concert
work, and made one excursion in
to opera as Alfio in a New York
production of "Cavalleria Rusti
cana," it was thru George Gersh
win and his folk opera, "Porgy
and Bess," that Todd Duncan
scored his first great success.
While setting the DuBose Hey
ward play to music, Gershwin dis
covered Duncan and decided to
star him in his forthcoming
"Porgy." Much of the entire role
was written especially for Mr.
Duncan, of whom Gershwin said:
"Mr. Duncan is one of the finest
artists ever developed in his race."
Duncan, starred as Porgy in two
coast-to-coast tours, has pro
grammed several selections from
"Porgy and Bess" for his Tuesday
concert here.
Mr. Duncan received his bach
elor's degree from Butler College
and his master's from Columbia
University. Teaching voice after
university days led him to the
faculty of Howard University in
Washington, D. C, the largest Ne
gro school in the country. Altho
the theater and concert tours have
taken most of his time since 1936,
Mr. Duncan is still a faculty mem
ber at Howard University.
