The Emerson Quartet and Renee Fleming are to give the first performance of Tom Stoppard’s Penelope with a score by Andre Previn.

Described as ‘an opera of sorts’, it will kick of Previn’s 90th birthday bash at Tanglewood next summer.

    I have had the privilege to be at the opening night of “Streetcar” in San Francisco, opera I deeply love and saw a few times live: in SF and London
