Contemporary Opera Premiere Explores Biological Warfare,
Mind Control, and Famous 1950's CIA Misdeed
Man: Biology of a Fall, a new full-length opera with music by Evan
Hause and a libretto by Gary Heidt, will have a four-performance
world premiere run on October 4, 5, 6 and 7 at Kumble Theater, the
new cutting-edge performance space of the Brooklyn Campus of Long
Island University (1 University Place, Brooklyn).
The opera, presented in chamber orchestra version and utilizing live
electronics, will feature a cast of 10 male singers, 2 female singers
and 2 actors. The opera stars Lyric Tenor Steven Ebel supported by a
large cast consisting of Darren Lougée, San-ky Kim, Mark Peters,
David A. Gordon, Mary Ellen Assue, Raemond Martin, Jeffrey
Mandelbaum, C. David Morrow, John Schenkel, Kamala Sankaram, actors
Christopher Burris, Miriam Tabb and Yuval Boim. It will be directed
by Jyana S. Gregory with lighting design by Matthew Richards,
costumes by Jessica Ford, and sets by Rumiko Ishii. Conducted by the
composer.
The opera deals with Frank Olson (1910-1953) who was one of the first
American scientists to study biological weapons, such as anthrax, for
the Army. He also witnessed violent interrogation techniques used on
ex-Nazi POWs in post-war Europe, some ending in death. He observed
first-hand accounts of fighter pilots returning from the Korean War
who reported the use of biological weapons on enemy soldiers. He was
ultimately drugged with LSD and subjected to interrogation himself
when he began having reservations about his work. Then he went out a
hotel window in New York City. Suicide or murder? – The opera is a
fictional account of the final mysterious days of his life.
This opera, Man: Biology of a Fall, is the third and final opera of
what composer and librettist call the "Defenestration Trilogy
(written between 2000 and 2007) of which two already-produced operas
are The Birth and Theft of Television concerning the suicide of F.M.
inventor Edwin Armstrong and Nightingale dealing with the last days
of James Forrestal, the first Secretary of Defense who went out a
hospital window under unknown circumstances. In reviewing the work,
Opera News called it “fresh and dramatic" and the Village Voice
called it "dramatic and haunting."

Blackpool Opera House. Originally a Frank Matcham theatre stood on the site (from 1889) but this was demolished and replaced by a new theatre (Mangnall & Littlewood) in 1911. Following a fire the interior was rebuilt in an art deco style in 1939 to the design of C H MacKeith.

The Opera seen across Bjørvika bay in central Oslo. Taken just after sunset on a calm and clear early may evening. Used 6 or 7 vertical shots from my 35mmAF-D and stiched in MS ICE.
That machine is unplugged. In fact, it's always unplugged at Opera Gallery NYC, even though it is meant to be a playable arcade game by Faile and Bast. It was an effort by Faile and Bast to liven up stuffy galleries, but Opera basically killed the piece.
Opera is a gorgeous Husky/Australian Shepherd mix. She has clear blue eyes from her Husky side and a short, docked tail from her Australian Shepherd genes. She's sweet and affectionate and loves everyone she meets, human or canine. She also is submissive with other dogs and can often be found on the bottom of the "dog-pile" at play time. She has lived with cats for a short period of time and ignored them for the most part; she actually seems kind of scared of them! Opera is doing very well with house-training, she walks well on a leash, and she knows to sit for her treats. She is also good with children. Opera's favorite activities involve playing, chewing on bones, and playing some more! While Opera is not particularly high energy, she tends to get bored easily and would do best in a home with another dog her size to romp around with. She's a smart, charming girl, who would love to be in a home with dogs and people who adore her. (IMG_3444a)
One of my personal favourites, shot with the trusty Fuji 1400. A very cold day on the parvis of the Sacre Coeur, with some heavy pollution obscuring the view of the city.

Another outstanding dessert - I felt Per Se desserts were actually superior to the savory dishes.
Please enjoy the entire Per Se (Dinner) picture set and consider Overall Impression.
