Since things in the opera world have been a little sad lately and LA Opera’s less-than-stellar Ring Cycle review doesn’t add to that good news, I went on a quest today for something happy to report in the opera world!
Thank you Renee Fleming! I didn’t have to look very long before I found this wonderful story. Ms. Fleming performed to a sell out crowd and helped raise over 2.4 million for Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music.
It doesn’t hurt that her younger brother, Geordie Alexander, is a first-year master’s student in the school’s opera program.
I found Geordie on Facebook. I wonder if he’ll get a lot of friend requests today.
