The Cavalry Arrives for Crimson Arts

Jenn Chang reviews Lowell House Opera's Don Giovanni in The Crimson. In other news, the savvy of the Arts Monday section jumped 83.4% this week.

I think Ed (our music director) will be especially pleased to read:

In fact, the orchestra's volume hums well beneath that of the soloists throughout the opera. The orchestra's willingness to provide the often under-appreciated accompaniment demonstrates a mature musical sensitivity that audiences will appreciate.

(orchestra/vocal balance is one of the hardest things to manage with a student ensemble)

UPDATE: (11:30 pm) I should probably note that the many synatical and punctuation errors are obviously the result of over-aggressive and braindead editing, lest someone read this and think, "Oh, DR is such a Jenn Chang homer that he ignored all of these errors." I noticed them, but they're so egregious that they could only be made by an editor on hard deadline.
