meganmariehart, On this day in 2016 was the premiere of our « La voix humaine » in Detmold. It was the opera directing debut of my friend Karin Kotzbauer-Bode! The posters arrived late at the Landestheater Detmold, after the people who put them up had already left, and we ended up putting them up ourselves — a flashback to the first time I performed Francis Poulenc’s mono opera at Oberlin in 2006 as my master’s recital!
