Religion Will Get You Into Trouble

Thaïs
Suor Angelica
Theodora
The Bassarids
An impressive season, especially considering how quickly you whipped it together.
2 random thoughts: thanks for excluding Massenet. And 2) I saw Gospel of Mary M two or three times. I don't know if I have another performance in me so soon. I'd be more interested if I knew a revision was in the works.
Oops. I hadn't seen the other comment when I submitted mine.
Wasn't published yet!
This is an excellent list.
Saint Joan by Tchaikovsky.
That's up as The Maid of Orleans. I was not very impressed with the work when SFO did it a decade back for Zajick.
Rob, I'm putting up The Bassarids and Theodora but skipping the others. :)
