Opera singers will come together tomorrow to honour Hillary Clinton, while Donald Trump is being sworn in.
Glen Roven has set two Clinton speeches to music to be sung by Patricia Racette, Nathan Gunn, Isabel Leonard, Lawrence Brownlee, Matthew Polenzani and others.Setting Hillarys words was a very emotional experience, said Glen Roven.
Phrases that fly by in a speech are naturally elongated in a musical setting, and as I set each word, slowly and methodically I was in tears. When I mentioned this project to these singers, their immediate response was, Im in.

I want to thank you for introducing me to this site.
The trolling will be delicious.
There’s so many. Will these greats be a part of the show?
“You did WHAT with that cigar?”
F*@& off! Its enough I have to see you s*&t-kickers every day! Im not going to talk to you, too! Just do your Goddamn job and keep your mouth shut.
“Come on Bill, put your d*%k up! You cant f*@& her here!!”
I hope they incorporate the Hillary stumbling and being carried into her van scene.
The song where she screams at Donna Brazile and throws full glasses of water at staffers is the most exciting. It’s called “O F*** That Assh*** Matt Lauer” and it gives you chills with its harsh beauty.
I think the “arts” are on the list to be defunded. Along with NPR/PBS.
This i believe is the real reason the left is going INSANE.
That and President Trump is locking out the propagandist media.
The leftist are literally losing control!
If there was any time in American History this is the time to cut all Federal support of the arts. Let them cut the million day wage and reduce these sick jackasses to the world we live in. NO CONTRIBUTION TO THE ARTS AND THIS INCLUDES HOLLYWOOD.
“. . . . if I only had a brain. . . “
If she won can you imagine the huge pomp that would be surrounding her inauguration tomorrow? Just thinking of what might have been is getting me ill. We didn’t dodge a bullet with her losing, we dodged a nuclear bomb, it would have been non stop barf alerts.
Hmm.
How do you sing, “They named me after the man who climbed Everest”?
“I thought about joining the Marine Corps.”
‘Juanita, if you know what’s good for you, you don’t want to make any trouble here.”
Anyone know all the words to the one I Don’t Recall?
The Hillary!(TM) campaign can’t be an opera.
It has a happy ending!
Opera lunatics?
Hey - that’s a great idea. I’d like to set some of her speeches to sprechtstimme, accompanied by passages from Wozzeck, after he’s just murdered his mistress and is baying at the moon.
Madonna in 5 or 6 years. But, I forgot, she can’t actually sing.
” a two-act comedy drama” -— relevant here is what F. Scott Fitzgerald said——”There are no second acts in American life”
correction: “no second acts in American LIVES”
nice
