  • @raseguin I know Shawna, she's a great teacher and person here in Italy :)

  • I went to school with Shawna at WHCI. I sure wish she would get in touch with me. She hasn't had an opportunity to call me a pauper yet! Robin Turner

  • Dear Maureen: Thanks for all the love you have given to us all!!!!

  • Rest In Peace Maureen Forrester 

  • @bluecrystal091 BABA

    No you're wrong, it's a lullaby to calm Baba. This is right out of the libretto.

    (Monica draws her away from Toby. She sits down, and Baba lies at her feet, her head on Monica’s lap.)

    MONICA

    Come, Baba. Come, Baba.

    (Monica begins gently to rock Baba.)

    The sun has fallen and it lies in blood.

    (Toby, already obvious of what has happened, takes an old tambourine from under the couch, and lying on the floor, accompanies the tune with soft taps on the instrument.)

  • really fantastic!! Thanks for posting!

  • Chills and tears. How incredibly beautiful Maureen Forrester's voice is.

  • Toby was my first experience with performing opera. How fun to tell people "I played a mute for my first opera role in college"! When our Baba threw me across the stage and came after me with her whip, she almost got me! I love "The Medium"!

  • WOW this clip gave me goosebumps and brought back lots of memories, I played toby and actually had the pleasure to be introduced to mr carlos minotti...so beat that all lol
