“O, learn to love, the lesson is but plain"

Longtime friend of the box and John De Los Santos (not pictured), librettist for When Adonis Calls, which had its world premiere at Asheville Opera last month, has sent us some video of the opera.

With music by Clint Borzoni and based on the poetry of Gavin Dillard, When Adonis Calls is “the story of an accomplished author struggling with writer’s block who is contacted by an eager young fan interested in both an artistic and personal correspondence.”
