Very fortunate to catch a rarity in
#BostonGuillaume Tell / William Tell produced by
@bostonlyricopera as its season opener
Attending
#opera is a wonderful opportunity - so much to absorb and process in real time - the music, the story, the production, the craft of the performance. The priorities and focus can change every second as the work progresses through time. Where do you like to focus?
The cast was absolutely stellar!! Personal shoutout to longtime colleague
@anya_matanovic for her wonderful scenes. The music making so wonderful, but her presence onstage brings the entire audience and company into her adventure. Kudos to
@ninayoshidanelsen for
#doubleduty as Artistic Director and stage performer! I love when these opportunities happen.
The production by
@glmmr was stellar!! Aesthetically modern by
@vitatzykun and
@davidadammoore which allows the contemporary audience to connect with the work. Trimming this epic was no small feat, but it worked very well. A story of occupation and many controlled by the few is quite timely in many lands.
What are you looking forward to this season? Next up in opera is Lincoln in the Bardo
