On Wenlock Edge - Music From The Trenches

Dear Readers,

An exciting few days are among us. I am not referring to the World Series, nor to the election, but contrarily to WWI "inspired" musical programs!

Just around four hours ago I performed Ralph Vaughn-William's "On Wenlock Edge" with the piano quartet from The Scarab Club's Chamber Music at the Scarab Club concert series. I was so honored to have Dr. David Dichiera and Mr. Wayne Brown, as well as several Michigan Opera Theatre Studio resident artists, and of course all of the faithful opera lovers in attendance.

The show went very well, it's such an honor to be selected to preview or introduce the music of Kevin Puts and his opera Silent Night.

Tomorrow morning at 10:30 we have a run through of Silent Night. Then again at 3... Sunday we'll have the Sitzprobe at 2 then concert the second "Music From The Trenches" at 7!! Maybe I'll sleep when I die.

Exciting few days...

More soon
Joe
