[quote]Posted By n/a on 02/12/2008 12:28 PM I like all the suggestions made by others who posted (especially the semi-staging of Dutchman or Wagner excerpts with the NC Symphony, Dialogues of the Carmelites, and anything by Richard Strauss). As for Boheme and Cosi, we do need to be aware of what other companies in the area are staging, and what the Met is HD-casting, so that we don't have too much of the same. I am a proponent of American operas, because the language is more accessible to many, and the voice and cast demands are typically less than the European works. I'm thinking especially of Ward and Floyd but there are others to consider. Additionally, any opportunity to collaborate with the NC School of the Arts should be considered. Thanks for this opportunity for input![/quote]
