Chasing Teddy: October 2010
http://chasingteddy.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Driving across country to see Teddy Tahu Rhodes sing at Santa Fe opera. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. We missed seeing mezzo Isobel Leonard the summer we were in Santa Fe, but the mountain air must have been conducive to romance because that fall Teddy Tahu Rhodes and Isobelle Leonard married in New York and they had their first child this summer of 2010.

OperaBlog: 01/01/2004 - 02/01/2004

Discussion of opera (the music genre, NOT the web browser) and internet opera broadcasts. Saturday, January 31, 2004. There are five parameters, IMO, in the Wagner tenor rep: endurance at the top of the range, strength and amplitude in the low, stamina through a long role, eccentricities of musical style and, finally, consistency of heavy orchestral writing surrounding the role's vocal line. For endurance at the top of the range, some have a more overwhelmingly taxing high tessitura than others. Again, a...

Driving across country to see Teddy Tahu Rhodes sing at Santa Fe opera. Tuesday, August 12, 2008. Billy Budd - August 6, 2008 pm. At 6:08 pm Wednesday evening Alisa and I departed for the opera house to hear Benjamin Britton's. With baritone Teddy Tahu Rhodes singing Billy and tenor Bill Burden as Captain Edward "Starry" Vere. The gentleman looked healthy and fit on Wednesday and said he had fully recouperated. I wondered before I left for Santa Fe if I would have difficulty with the altitude, but on...

Chasing Teddy: Figaro -- August 5, 2008
http://chasingteddy.blogspot.com/2008/08/on-tuesday-august-5-we-had-waffles-for.html
Driving across country to see Teddy Tahu Rhodes sing at Santa Fe opera. Sunday, August 10, 2008. Figaro - August 5, 2008. On Tuesday, August 5, we had waffles for breakfast at Las Palomas and drove five minutes to the opera house to take a backstage tour. I’m glad we did this because it gave me a much better understanding of the unique nature of productions at Santa Fe’s John Crosby Theatre, named when it was built in 1998 after the opera’s founder who created Santa Fe Opera in 1957. I sat in row O just ...
