The iron tongue of midnight hath told twelve. Lovers, to bed; 'tis almost fairy time.
Berce mollement sur ton sein sublime
Ô puissante mer, l’enfant de Dindyme!

Save the Dates!
The back page of the Great Gatsby program has the exciting news that Mark Adamo's Lysistrata will be performed by Ensemble Parallele in February, 2013. I saw Lysistrata in NYC in August, 2006, when it was quite new. It is funny, touching, dramatically effective, beautifully put together, has some lovely music; I think it was the best new American opera of 2005, actually.
How many new American operas were there in 2005?
ReplyDeleteThe other famous one was Doctor Atomic, but I assume there were others.
