Thompson Street Opera Company Presents "An Afternoon of Shorts"
Thompson Street Opera Company Presents:

An Afternoon of Shorts!

Join us for Thompson Street Opera Company's 2013 season!  Featured on both Sundays of the season is a matinee program of short pieces-- both opera and art song-- with subjects ranging from quantum physics to bird song.  The repertoire is as follows:

QUANTUM MECHANIC
by John Bilotta
In this futuristic, off-the-wall Aesop's fable, a malfunctioning kitchen appliance wreaks havoc with the space-time continuum.  

CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN OWL, NIGHTINGALE, AND LARK
by Hong-da Chin
This duet for flute and soprano is a musical dialogue with the poetry of George MacDonald.  

CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE HILLBILLY KIND
by Yvonne Freckmann
This delightful mini-opera is based on a real-life encounter the composer had on a public bus with a very talkative native Kentuckian.  

SNOW WHITE TURNS SIXTY
by Dale Trumbore
This dramatic song cycle re-imagines several well-known fairy-tales from the female character's point of view.
