Gala concerts are grand occasions--big-name stars gather with a great orchestra to let their hair down for an evening that's usually a change from regular symphony programs. The stars of STAR CROSSED LOVERS are Placido Domingo, Renée Fleming and Daniel Barenboim, and the theme of their gala evening in late January, 1998, was love. Although the audience is completely inaudible in the live portions of this disc, they must have had a grand time indeed, for Domingo, Fleming and Barenboim gave them an evening of great music impeccably performed.
For the opening mini-suite from 'West Side Story,' the Chicago players capture the jazzy elements of Bernstein's music with ease; Fleming's "Somewhere" is stirring and elegant. Operatic duets from 'Otello' and 'Faust' break up the remainder of the program, which consists of Spanish songs from Domingo and Duke Ellington from Fleming, both with Barenboim at the piano. Separated from the other two of the Three Tenors, Domingo brings a refreshing lack of excess to his songs, and Fleming's Ellington is truly exquisite as she sets herself into a languid yet stratospheric take on the tunes. In Franz Lehár's duet "Lippen schweigen" they come together to bring the proceedings to a waltzing close.

THE BIRTH OF GEORGE a brief synopsis: A communal dream of comatose patients unconsciously acting out their fantasies, the opera quickly becomes the story of a strange vaudevillian family. George, our protagonist is a "Johnny Appleseed" of the subconscious. Structured loosely on "UBIK", by Philip K. Dick, no one knows if they're dead or alive. As the characters are pulled towards consciousness by doctors and loved ones they catch glimpses of the mysterious forces that maintain their shared apparent reality...until a crisis causes their assumptions to disintegrate, revealing the tragic truth of their situations. David Simons and Lisa Karrer began creating their opera "The Birth of George" in 1995. They received funding from the Mary Flagler Cary Trust, the Jerome Foundation, the Greenwall Foundation and the Aaron Copland Fund to compose, develop, perform and record it. Sponsored by Harvestworks and American Opera Projects, The Birth of George had its workshop premier at LaMama in '97. The CD was released in 2003 under Harvestworks TELLUS label. David and Lisa also perform their own compositions for Indonesian Gamelan, Homemade Instruments, Asian and Western ensembles, voice and electromics, and arrangements of other deconstructed world musics. They've performed their works in New York, Kansas, Hawaii, Indonesia, and throughout Eastern and Western Europe.COMPOSER BIOGRAPHIES:Lisa Karrer works internationally as a composer, vocalist, director and performance artist.

Her most recent opera project "The Simurgh" is based on the writings of South African novelist Olive Schreiner and features additional text by the novelist Doris Lessing. "The Simurgh" will premier in concert in 2004, hosted by American Opera Projects. Currently Lisa is developing "Woman's Song: The Story of Roro Mendut", a multi-arts music theater project based on a 17th Century Javanese legend. "Woman's Song..." is a collaboration with visual artists Kate Yourke and Jenny Lynn McNutt, and features Gamelan Son of Lion ensemble, Balinese and Javanese dance and mask, martial arts, stilt performer and contemporary wayang kulit shadow puppets.
