\"GregoryLEXINGTON, Ky.\u2014Tenor Gregory Turay knows about journeys, not only in distances logged by frequent flyer miles but paths taken when one follows one\u2019s heart.\n<\/p>\n

\nSo it\u2019s no surprise that the Metropolitan Opera singer will perform two wayfarer song cycles, \u201cSongs of Travel\u201d and \u201cOn Wenlock Edge,\u201d written by prolific English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams, for a concert in his hometown of Lexington, Ky., Wednesday, Feb. 12, at 7:30 p.m. at Transylvania University\u2019s Carrick Theater. The concert is free and open to the public.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe hour-long concert features the six-part song cycle \u201cOn Wenlock Edge\u201d for voice, piano and string quartet and the world premiere of John Greer\u2019s arrangement of \u201cSongs of Travel,\u201d a nine-part song cycle for voice and piano. There will be a brief intermission between the two compositions.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI wanted to do a recital of \u201cOn Wenlock Edge\u201d because I love the piece,\u201d said Turay. \u201cIt’s been a passion of mine since I performed it almost 20 years ago in Charleston, S.C., at the Spoleto Festival with Charles Wadsworth. And then John Greer, my accompanist, suggested the \u2018Songs of Travel,\u2019 as he had been working on an arrangement of them for piano and string quartet; it was a perfect marriage!\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nTuray\u2019s journey into the opera world began in 1995 when he competed and won at the national level of the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. He was awarded a place in the opera\u2019s Young Artist Development Program, which led to an international career that has taken him around the world, including to Japan, Poland, Spain, Ireland, Peru and England.\n<\/p>\n

\nTuray is the recipient of several of classical music\u2019s most coveted honors, including the Richard Tucker Award, the George London Foundation Award and an ARIA award. Turay was hailed early in his career by the London Times as \u201cone of the brightest natural talents to have emerged from the U.S. in recent years.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nTuray is currently a Kenan Visiting Artist at Transylvania University. Although his teaching schedule has forced him to reduce the number of his performances, he continues to perform abroad, including recently in Dublin, Ireland; Lima, Peru; and Mexico City.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI moved back [to Lexington] so I could be home more for my wife and three children. Therefore, I mainly try to stay local,\u201d said Turay.\n<\/p>\n

\nJohn Greer, who arranged \u201cSongs of Travel\u201d and will accompany Turay for the concert, is a faculty member of the University of Toronto opera division and is currently a visiting associate professor of vocal coaching\/head coach of voice and opera at the University of Kentucky.\n<\/p>\n

\nGreer has served as the music director of the Eastman Opera Theatre in Rochester, N.Y.; has been the director and chair of opera studies at the New England Conservatory in Boston; and for ten summers was the manager and head of music staff for the Janiec Opera Workshop at the Brevard Music Center in North Carolina.\n<\/p>\n

\nCarrick Theater is in Transylvania\u2019s Mitchell Fine Arts Center<\/a> on West Fourth Street, between North Broadway and Upper Streets. Free parking is available in the adjacent parking lot. The Mitchell Fine Arts Center is handicap accessible.
