But this time, all you need to know about Anne Boleyn, 2nd wife of Henry VIII, can be heard in this song:. Young Anne Boleyn she was two, had a daughter, the best she could do.

Saturday, November 16, 2013. Comic Artists' Night at the Opera - Arabella. The Minnesota Opera generously invites artists and members of the press to dress rehearsals for each show that they premiere. The Black Hat Collective and I arrive with pens, pencils and paintbrushes and make it out mission to interpret each show through cartoons and sketches.

Friday, December 21, 2012. New Year's Party 1200 Years in the Making Catches World by Surprise. Chichen Itza, Yucután, Mexico - December 21, 2012. A few minutes later, a large Maya-language banner reading, "Happy New B'ak'tun! Rolled down the steps of the pyramid, capping off an overture that would have announced the changeover from the Mayan Calendar's B'ak'tun 12. 20.20.18.19. To the much more elegant B'ak'tun 13.00.00.00.00. Actually, no. Forget 'kind of,' that's exactly what happened," she added.

http://notesfromafairyprincess.blogspot.com/2012/01/opera-werther.html
Notes From a Fairy Princess In Exile. Musings on fairy tales, myths, fables, writing, and the occasional fangirl squee about Baba Yaga. Its that time again! This time it was a Tragic Romance from the 1890s called Werther. Yeah if this is spoiling anything, you don't know opera very well. So…Here’s the good—as an opera, the music is perfect—the best, probably that I’ve seen. The set and costumes and casting choices are spot on perfect. Seriously folks—the dude who played Werther was wonderful. Werther is ...

Notes From a Fairy Princess In Exile. Musings on fairy tales, myths, fables, writing, and the occasional fangirl squee about Baba Yaga. The long awaited fangirl squeeeing about Baba Yaga.

http://notesfromafairyprincess.blogspot.com/2012/04/madame-butterfly.html
Notes From a Fairy Princess In Exile. Musings on fairy tales, myths, fables, writing, and the occasional fangirl squee about Baba Yaga. So, I knew very little about this opera before I went to see it. I knew the name, and I had seen the promo materials—and I’ll be honest, I was a little wary of what I was going to see. Madame Butterfly then kills herself when it becomes clear her husband is a terrible human being who really did abandon her. Weird language choices are par for the course. The story’s...
