The Music Of The Most Popular Operas

In My View, The Operas Of Carlisle Floyd Will Find A Place In The Permanent Repertoire.

Directing An Opera Is Similar To Directing A Play. The Singing Must Not Get In The Way Of The Drama.

With Cold Sassy Tree Having Its First Production, I Saw No Necessity To Do Anything Other Than Produce It With The Correct Setting.

Quite A Few Operas Are Still Being Commissioned Around The World, Although Nothing Apart From Audience Popularity Can Ensure More Than A Few Performances.

I Thought, This Is Fabulous. It Sent Shivers Up My Spine. I Thought, What Kinds Of People Are These That Would Produce This Kind Of Music In A Camp? All The Prison Camp Stories I've Seen, And Heard Of, Were About The Heroism Of Men. As I Researched This And Heard The Music, I Realized That Women Were Heroic Too, On Just As Grand A Scale. And Their Treatment Was Just As Appalling.
