This was the first part of a production I was involved in over the weekend with Opera at Louisiana College. This is an excerpt from Dominick Argento's Miss Havisham's Wedding Night featuring a very dear and talented friend of mine, Heather Hubbard. This is a very interesting piece. It definitely ranks as one of those strange 20th century works that kinda grows on you the more you listen to it. As you can imagine, this is a very vocally demanding piece and I was most impressed with Heather's performance. She's worked very hard all semester long to learn this, so please give her some love! :) DanC
