Life long love of opera as well as other forms of theatre and music, esp. punk/alternative rock, symphony and chamber music. My second opera, THE PASSION OF LT. DE SEZIGNEY, was chosen by NANOworks of Atlanta, Ga. to be premiered this August. Worked with director Stephanie Havey on revisions. Due to CoronaVirus, performance has been postponed until Summer of 2021. Favorite operas: DIE MEISTERSINGER (Wagner), NOZZE DI FIGARO (Mozart) and, this week, THE SNOW QUEEN (Hans Abrahamson). Favorite albums: PORGY AND BESS excerpts with Leontyne Price, KIND OF BLUE by Miles Davis, ZEN ARCADE by Husker Du, CRAZY RHYTHMS by The Feelies ​Have volunteered at WOLF TRAP OPERA for seven years.
