Reviews | "Choir Practice's overriding theme is the transformative power of music; it makes its point through a dialectical mix of materials encompassing a wide range of musical and comedic ideas." - David Gordon Duke, Vancouver Sun "Choir Practice is a tiny wonder, a scintillating and effervescent one act romp. Stephen Chatman's music is light and playful, consistent with the frolicsome fabric of the proceedings. Wohlberg's crystalline and original libretto…carry the day." - Kate Mackin, vanclassicalmusic.com |
