Damnation on the Docket

I have been spending my few days off studying Damnation of Faust. Berlioz is growing on me more and more and the fantastic story of Faust will never disappoint. Hard to imagine that October is already half gone. It has been snowing in Munich off and on for the last couple of days. Feels a bit early for snow. I wonder if that means we are in for a long winter? I could really do with out that. Staying in Chicago for Jan and February seems like enough winter for anyone.

Not a whole lot to announce on the opera front. I have, however, just recently signed a contract to work with a new opera house next fall that is a long way from here. Always great to add new cities and opera houses to the list. Can't quite announce where or what it is yet....but hopefully soon. The Opera companies always reserve the right to be the first to announce there seasons. Gotta play by the rules.
