Six years ago, Gunther Schuller: The Fisherman and His Wife dropped on the GRAMMY®-winning BMOP/sound label. This world premiere recording captures the 2015 memorial performance of the family-friendly opera which #OdysseyOpera presented with our friends at @bmop.

This fable by the Pulitzer Prize-winning Schuller sets John Updike’s libretto and makes a great #opera introduction for listeners of all ages • https://bmopsound.bandcamp.com/album/gunther-schuller-the-fisherman-and-his-wife

April recognizes #NationalPoetryMonth in the U.S. an observance organized thirty years ago by the Academy of American Poets to increase awareness and appreciation of #poetry.

Today we’re listening to @bmop’s collab with @Odysseyopera, Dominick Argento: The Voyage of Edgar Allan Poe, commissioned for the U.S. bicentennial. Charles Nolte’s libretto draws from many Poe works, including several of his poems: “The Bells”; “Ulalume”; and “Annabel Lee”, to name a few / https://bmopsound.bandcamp.com/album/dominick-argento-the-voyage-of-edgar-allan-poe

@bmop we couldn’t have had better partners for this enjoyable operatic satire!

Our recent partnership with @Odysseyopera on its presentation of Gian Carlo Menotti’s opera The Last Savage, is receiving enthusiastic reviews.

At Boston Musical Intelligencer (BMI), Lee Eisman celebrates #BMOP as “players who can make any composer sound great.” And the Arts Fuse’s Aaron Keebaugh writes Menotti’s “melodies soared, his orchestration swept grandly”, lauding the performance as “a reminder of why the composer struck such a popular chord during the 20th century.”
