Summary / AnnotationCOMMUNITY REVIEWS
Solo, Duet, Trio and Ensemble Comedy Opera submitted by ekjensen on July 22, 2020, 1:13pm This is a delightful, fully musical comedy with extraordinary male and female voices singing fast and furious (more notes than humanly possible, but is possible in this opera). Even better if you can watch a live or recorded performance (e.g., HD Live MET with Lawrence Brownlee and Isabel Leonard)!
