LA Opus: April 2015
http://www.laopus.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Reporting on music and the lively arts. Sunday, April 19, 2015. SDO Again Proves Itself Worthy of “Must-See” Status. Vocally, dramatically and musically. Of the “Entrance of the Guests” from Wagner’s Tannhauser. The ensemble sang as one instrument, presenting difficult choruses from Puccini’s Tosca. And Verdi’s Nabucco. With vocal consistency and power. Even the extremely quick tempi of conductor Karen Kamensek did not daunt these expert choral singers from producing a sound that was both forceful an...

LA Opus: July 2015
http://www.laopus.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Reporting on music and the lively arts. Wednesday, July 8, 2015. David Bennett, Part 2: New Seasons, New Concepts. You don’t strike me as a person who is easily daunted. There’s always a lot to do. Getting everything solidified is one piece of the puzzle, but then you’re constantly trying to push the envelope. And that’s always a work in progress. Amazing how many composers are bringing these subjects to the opera stage. It doesn’t get much more controversial than that. The Old Globe is right there.

Reporting on music and the lively arts. Monday, June 22, 2015. Gunther Schuller: A Remembrance. The loss of a respected musical icon, no matter at what age, is always a sad event. For those musicians among us who knew and worked with Gunther Schuller, the news of his passing at age 89 evokes more than respect; it evokes memories of wonderful performances, richly varied conversations, and a man whose influence in my early life as a young, aspiring musician still resides in my soul. Later, as a student at ...

LA Opus: David Bennett Starts His SDO Journey, Part 1
http://www.laopus.com/2015/07/david-bennett-starts-his-sdo-journey.html
Reporting on music and the lively arts. Wednesday, July 8, 2015. David Bennett Starts His SDO Journey, Part 1. How have you fared thus far in your first few weeks with the company? Concrete information instead of theoretical. Exactly. We were able to tell people what next year looks like, which was already contracted and announced, and that the following year we’re going to be doing three productions in a split season. Split in what way? A concert version of an opera on stage? That is indeed creative.
