My short opera – complete with subtitling – is now up on youtube!
It is scene from Stephen Crane's short story "The Open Boat" which recounts his own personal experience as a survivor of a shipwreck off the coast of Florida in 1897. I adapted the libretto from the story and incorporated several of his poems into the scene as well.
The performance is from this May in Paragraph Gallery in Kansas City. It features three truly wonderful singers: Stacey Stofferahn, Jessica Salley, and Anna Louise Hoard as well as stage and art direction from Lisa Cordes and Alison Heryer. Produced by Black House, conducted by John Chittum, with audio and recording by KcEMA.
