April 29 - Engaged
Thanks to Kat Cornelius and
Janet Lohr, we decided that they will switch roles in Act II of Waiting for Godot, which should be interesting when the character playing Lucky in Act I suddenly becomes Pozzo after the break....
Lots of activity today for the Easter Hangover program, and fine presentations all around, including a song by Douglas Mandell, sung nicely in duet with Suzanna Mizell. For the Halfway Mark excerpts, we went with the MIDI renditions on the MacBook, including my voice(s) being in the mix for Bianca Showalter's Ecclesiastes, the Missa "The a deux": Kyrie, and San Rafael News: Lifespan (verses 2-7) -- the latter in the Animal Mix version Minus One... Nice full mixed choral sound for Aerial Requiem: Agnus Dei; Carl Koryat, William Loney, Lisa McHenry, Marilyn Pratt, Eliza O'Malley, Kat all in rare form for Orpheus, Rebecca, and Godot excerpts. Even the staging, with no rehearsal time, came off well....
Had to zip off after through the Golden Gate fog north to still sunny San Rafael for Marin Symphony, report soon....
