Sat December 6, 2008 8 pm

Don’t miss your only opportunity to see the 2008 Adler Fellows perform all together on the War Memorial Stage. At this once-in-a-lifetime concert, the brightest talents in the opera world present an evening of favorite opera scenes and arias with the San Francisco Opera Orchestra conducted by Maestro Patrick Summers. The program will consist of works by Strauss, Getty, [i][u][b]Wagner[/b][/u][/i], Bellini, Handel and Massenet. Hear the stars of tomorrow today, in the roles for which they will soon be renowned.

==========================================

This should be a great warm-up for the Cosima Wagner Party on December 7th.

Flosshilde has it on good authority that a [u]full-length Wagner scene[/u] will be performed – not just an aria! Heidi Melton, Tamara Wapinsky (Freia), Daveda Karanas(Fricka cover), Daniela Mack and Katherine Tier (Brigitte the maid in Tote Stadt) all have lustrous Wagnerian-sized voices and lovely Ji Young Yang has sung the shepherd in Tannhäuser

Elsa and Ortrud?
Brünnhilde & Waltraute?
Your best guess?
