Greetings from Granite State

April 23, 2008 - Just a quick post to say that rehearsals are going very well here in New Hampshire. My Cosi cast is really wonderful, and I'm enjoying working with them immensely. I am, however, still engaged in things for OV: translating Handel's Apollo and Dafne for Artscape (almost finished with that and looking forward to getting started on translating Lord Giovanni), coordinating details for the OV11 gala (if you haven't already gotten a ticket, you should because it's going to be an awesome party - or partay as Eurydice would say), and finalizing the last few cast members' contracts for next season (you can now buy subscriptions online to our "naughty boys" season featuring Mozart's Lord Giovanni, Monteverdi's The Coronation of Poppea, and Britten's Albert Herring). So I'm actually my usual busy self, just in a different state.

See you at an opera somewhere. - John Bowen
