My new opera When a man knows is moving towards its first performance. I now have a venue, a date, a conductor and singers for the two leads. This week I will be sending out scores to the singers, which is always rather unnerving. In fact, the whole period between now and the concert makes me nervous as the work is exposed first to the performers and then to the public.
We plan a simple concert performance on Sunday June 13th 2010, at St. John's Church, Waterloo. There will be drinks afterwards so I can get feedback from the audience. The conductor will be David Roblou who runs Midsummer Opera.
