Yes, it’s time for The Omniscient Mussel’s third annual Twitter opera plot contest (which I also discussed a year ago).
The contest; to summarize any opera plot within the constraints of a Twitter post (140 characters or less).
One of my (non-winner) favorites last years frames “Aïda” as a collections of 80′s song titles:
Walk like an Egyptian. Who’s that girl? Let’s play master & servant. Every breath you take… Tainted love! I would die 4 U.
Happy tweeting!
Join composer Judd Greenstein the week of February 27 for an online conversation about his musical influences. Read more about The Listening Room project.
Inside the Classics concerts are anything but ordinary. The evening begins with conductor Sarah Hicks and violist Sam Bergman presenting a lively exploration of the concert program, providing you with insights to enrich your listening experience. The Orchestra also performs musical examples, so you know what to listen for and why. After intermission, sit back, relax and enjoy a full performance of the featured music.
Join our initiative to commission a new musical work from New York composer Judd Greenstein.
