Music Notes, March 14, 2016

We're back from Spring Break, and Rosen Concert Hall has been converted to serve as our opera theater for The Bartered Bride, our spring opera production with performances on March 31-April 3 (see Looking Ahead below). Four rows of seats have been removed to accommodate the orchestra, and a unit set is onstage, creating a contemporary small town setting for the production.
