my first modern opera experience

The Midnight Court Opera was very well done. I know that I did not pick up on all the symbolism put into the production. Vocal technique from the stage left me in awe at many times. I think modern voice work will take me a while to appreciate. Solos in that style impact me much more. An entire work was a bit much. I enjoyed this translation of Brian Merriman's poem very much.

Debriefing: walking away from the water for an hour

Next time: A classical, professional show.

Why: Prove my pet theory that my friends really are better than those currently earning a living performing.
