class="Normal-C22">There are so many wonderful things that happen in a career but the really memorable moments, which most folks prefer to read about, always seem to be the disasters. <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="FINISH"></a><span class="Normal-C23">FINISH THE OPERA YOURSELF<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I have loved classical music, including opera, since I was perhaps four or five years old and was allowed to play my parents 78 rpm recordings  very very carefully  on our old Victrola. &nbsp;My professional career actually began when I was ten years old. &nbsp;My mother had enrolled me in the All Children s Grand Opera, an extraordinary Chicago institution many years ago, run by Zerlina Mühlmann Metzger, daughter of the turn of the century Metropolitan Opera baritone Adolph Mühlmann. &nbsp;We did complete operas in their original languages. &nbsp;I sang Radames, as a boy soprano(!) in Act I of </span><span class="Normal-C24">Aïda</span><span class="Normal-C22"> and Hoffman in Act II of </span><span class="Normal-C24">Les contes d Hoffman</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;Although I m sure it was a great experience, it must have been hysterical! &nbsp;Too bad it was before the days of recording. But more to the point, our company was engaged to sing the children s choruses with the New York City Opera on their annual tours to Chicago. &nbsp;I sang (for money! but not very much) in </span><span class="Normal-C24">La Bohème</span><span class="Normal-C22">, </span><span class="Normal-C24">Tosca</span><span class="Normal-C22">, and </span><span class="Normal-C24">Carmen</span><span class="Normal-C22">, and I was a super in </span><span class="Normal-C24">Manon</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;Thus, on November 19, 1953, I was in the most notorious performance in the history of that company. &nbsp;After singing  </span><span class="Normal-C24">Avec la garde montante nous arrivons, nous voilà!</span><span class="Normal-C22">.. in the first act of </span><span class="Normal-C24">Carmen</span><span class="Normal-C22">, I, with my mother, went into the audience to enjoy the rest of the performance. &nbsp;In Act IV it seemed that the conductor, Joseph Rosenstock, suddenly had to make a train and began racing tempos like a bat out of hell. &nbsp;I recall whispering to my mother,  Mommy, isn t this too fast? &nbsp;(I had a recording and knew the opera quite well). &nbsp;David Poleri, the Don Jose, evidently was becoming more and more annoyed. &nbsp;Finally, two minutes before he was to stab Gloria Lane, the Carmen, he lost it. &nbsp;He announced to Mr. Rosenstock and Ms. Lane in a loud voice,  Finish the opera yourself, and stormed offstage in a truly traumatic terribly tenorial temperamental tantrum! &nbsp;A voice from backstage, which I learned decades later belonged to Walter Fredericks, started to sing Don Jose s lines and Ms. Lane died perfectly on cue from what is sometimes called  the Isolde syndrome. &nbsp;I have never seen anything like that since, although I have heard of singers walking out after being booed by audiences. &nbsp;Decades later I met Gloria Lane at a party and recalled the incident to her. &nbsp;She told me that, when the moment came, she wielded an imaginary knife and stabbed herself  good thinking  but at the time I hadn t noticed it. &nbsp;Furthermore, she said this was only the fourth time she had ever performed the role of Carmen. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="THECOSTUMEDESIGNER1"></a><span class="Normal-C23">THE COSTUME DESIGNER part 1</span><span class="Normal-C26"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">When I was a student at the University of Southern California, the opera workshop had a costume designer who sincerely believed that the body should be made to fit his costumes rather than vice-<wbr> versa. &nbsp;Thus it was that Despina in </span><span class="Normal-C24">Così fan tutte</span><span class="Normal-C22"> had an outfit that was just a bit too tight and just a bit too low cut. &nbsp;I am nearsighted and do not see very clearly without my glasses. &nbsp;During a performance as Don Alfonso, I was introducing Ferrando and Guglielmo disguised as Albanians to Despina, when I noticed these blurry little pink things on the top of Despina s costume which I hadn t noticed before. &nbsp;As I got closer I realized what those little pink things were. &nbsp;She evidently felt nothing. &nbsp;I moved closer to try to tell her to tuck herself in but she suddenly darted across the stage. &nbsp;One of the gentlemen moved closer to tell her what had happened but she darted somewhere else. &nbsp;Despina was always darting around. &nbsp;Finally she darted offstage where she discovered what had happened. &nbsp;From that moment on the opera was renamed </span><span class="Normal-C24">Così fan tittie</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="THECOSTUMEDESIGNER2"></a><span class="Normal-C23">THE COSTUME DESIGNER part 2</span><span class="Normal-C15"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">This same costume designer also discovered that costumes could be completed much faster if he used a hot glue gun instead of a sewing machine. &nbsp;(I kid you not)! &nbsp;My costume for Theseus in </span><span class="Normal-C24">A Midsummer Night s Dream</span><span class="Normal-C22"> was held up by only one strip of velcro affixed to the costume with this glue. &nbsp;The dress rehearsal and an opening with another cast went very well. &nbsp;Everyone (except the L.A. Times critic*) loved the costume. &nbsp;But on my opening night they had added streamers to the archway through which I made a grand entrance in the last act. &nbsp;As I made my grand entrance, one of the streamers somehow caught on this one strip of velcro and ripped it off the costume. &nbsp;I felt the costume coming totally off. &nbsp;While singing  Now, fair Hippolyta... I managed to clutch the costume to my body with my left elbow. &nbsp;I was able to keep most of it up with a little surreptitious help from my Hippolyta, while I tried to keep my left side upstage as much as possible. &nbsp;After what seemed like an eternity but was actually only a minute or so, I went to a sofa and sat down to watch the Rustics little play about Pyramus and Thisbe. &nbsp;The upside of all this was that during the Rustics play I was surrounded by several of Hippolyta s beautiful attendants who had their hands all over me trying to reattach my costume, but when hot glue comes off it stays off. &nbsp;Finally, as the act drew to an end, I rose from the sofa, elbow desperately clutching at my costume, and made my exit. Too bad there was no video. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">(*As everyone knows, the L.A.

We arrived at this entrance and I came in as loudly and forcefully as possible. &nbsp;But a second or two later I realized the horrible truth! &nbsp;I was the only one singing! &nbsp;I had obviously come in wrong and ruined the performance. &nbsp;It was the only time in my life that I ever contemplated suicide! &nbsp;After the performance my teacher, the conductor, came up to me and said,  Thank you, oh thank you! &nbsp;You were the only one who came in correctly! &nbsp;Nobody else came in. &nbsp;You saved the performance!

When I auditioned for the Vienna Kammeroper I saw that </span><span class="Normal-C24">Pagliacci</span><span class="Normal-C22"> was in their repertoire. &nbsp;Surely the pianist knew it, so out came the Prologue. &nbsp;Well, folks, this particular pianist had never seen it before. &nbsp;(I should have asked him first). &nbsp;What a disaster! &nbsp;We had to actually stop several times in mid-<wbr>audition and I had to explain to the pianist what was going on. Humiliated, I walked out afterwards, convinced that I would never sing at the Kammeroper. I was shocked to get a call a few weeks later. &nbsp;They offered me the role of the Kaiser in </span><span class="Normal-C24">Der Kaiser von Atlantis</span><span class="Normal-C22">! &nbsp;Go figure. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="BULL"></a><span class="Normal-C23">BULL<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I have gotten some amazing comments. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I auditioned for a </span><span class="Normal-C24">Carmen</span><span class="Normal-C22"> (Escamillo, <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">not Carmen!) and the gentleman listening <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">said,  Bullfighters are small and thin. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">(I am 6 3 and weigh [too much] over <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">250 lbs.). &nbsp; You should not be trying <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">out for the bullfighter, you should be <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">trying out for the bull. &nbsp;I replied,  If <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">you interpolate the Toreador Song for <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">the bull, I ll do it! &nbsp;I did not get the gig. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">(I wish I could remember which opera <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">company it was or who said it). &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="LATRAVIATA1"></a><span class="Normal-C23">LA TRAVIATA 1<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Once upon a time two companies were auditioning for </span><span class="Normal-C24">La Traviata</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;Why, oh why was I offered both... on the same date?! &nbsp;I took the one that paid more. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="ONHOLD"></a><span class="Normal-C23">ON HOLD<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Long long ago I wanted to audition for the City of Eckss Opera Company. &nbsp;I called the office and was told I had to speak with Maestro Bat Onwielder, the Chief Executive Honcho, about setting up an audition. &nbsp;The receptionist then put me on hold for at least three minutes. &nbsp;Then she came back on the line and told me that Maestro Onwielder had just left for the rest of the day and asked me to call back next week. &nbsp;Next week I called back. &nbsp;After being put on hold for at least five minutes, the receptionist informed me that Maestro Onwielder was in rehearsal for the rest of the day; could I please call back much later? &nbsp;Much later I called back again. &nbsp;After at least ten minutes on hold, I was told The Maestro had not come in yet. &nbsp;Then he had meetings. &nbsp;Then he had more rehearsals. &nbsp;Then he had just left for the rest of the day again. &nbsp;And again. &nbsp;And again. &nbsp;This continued for about two weeks. &nbsp;Having been advised by numerous advisors never to give up, I kept calling, kept spending lots of time on hold, never once speaking to Maestro Bat Onwielder. &nbsp;The following day I went to my teacher s home for a voice lesson. &nbsp;As my lesson concluded, one of my teacher s former pupils, Gloria Sighsee, a noted soprano who sang with leading opera companies, arrived to have lunch with my teacher. &nbsp;We talked for a few minutes and I mentioned my adventures on the telephone with the City of Eckss Opera Company and their receptionist. &nbsp; Yes, I know, Bat can sometimes be very hard to reach, said Gloria.  But say to the receptionist that your friend, Goldie Gotbucks, recommended you call him. &nbsp;I ll call Goldie now and let her know you are using her name. &nbsp;She supports the company and likes to help young singers. &nbsp;She won t mind at all. &nbsp;I didn t know Goldie Gotbucks from Minnie Marx or Lotte Franks, but so what. &nbsp;I called one more time. &nbsp; May I please speak to Maestro Bat Onwielder about an audition? I asked the receptionist. &nbsp; Just a moment, I ll connect you, she replied. &nbsp;After fifteen minutes on hold she came back on the line:  I m terribly sorry, he just stepped out to go to the bank. &nbsp;I replied,  Well, I ll try back later, but could you please tell him that Goldie Gotbucks recommended that I call him. &nbsp; Hang on just a moment, said the receptionist and put me back on hold, but this time for only about fifteen seconds. &nbsp;The line was picked up and a cheery voice said cheerily:  Hello. &nbsp;This is Bat Onwielder. &nbsp;May I help you? &nbsp;(The names have been changed to protect the guilty, but if you call me privately I may identify the characters. &nbsp;They are all absolutely real.

Professor X then addressed me, perhaps hoping to sign me up, asking,  Do you breathe from the diaphragm? &nbsp;The way in which he asked made me think he was posing the kind of trick question some teachers ask when they want to launch dramatically into a particular subject. &nbsp;I decided to answer,  Yes. &nbsp; Wrong! Professor X exclaimed triumphantly. &nbsp;I had fallen into his trap!  You breathe from your lungs. &nbsp;The diaphragm is only a muscle. That s why I teach nothing about breathing. &nbsp;You can t breathe any way except from the lungs. &nbsp;This ignorant Professor had no idea that  breathing from the diaphragm really means using the abdominal muscles to control the flow of air in and out of the lungs. &nbsp;This is the most efficient way to breathe, increasing breath control, and eliminating movement of the chest and shoulders, which slows you up, and causes unnecessary tension. &nbsp;He then said,  So you are a baritone. &nbsp;You know there are no baritones at the Met. &nbsp; What? I said. &nbsp; How about Robert Merrill or Tito Gobbi? &nbsp;He responded,  They re not baritones. &nbsp;They are lazy tenors! &nbsp; Really? I said. &nbsp; Well what about&  and I ticked off a list of famous baritones singing at the Met. &nbsp; They re all lazy tenors. &nbsp; Well then I suppose you think Dietrich Fischer-<wbr>Dieskau is also a tenor, I said. &nbsp; Who? Professor X asked. &nbsp; Does he sing at the Met? &nbsp; No, I don t believe he ever has, I replied.  Well, if he doesn t sing at the Met then he s nothing, proclaimed Professor X. &nbsp; Surely you don t think Leonard Warren was a lazy tenor, I asked. &nbsp;Professor X became livid. &nbsp; Leonard Warren? Leonard Warren? he practically screamed. &nbsp; Leonard Warren was MY student. &nbsp;I was going to make him into the greatest tenor in the world but he left me to study with Sydney Dietch who RUINED him by making him sing as a baritone. &nbsp;I then got off the line of a lifetime:  Gosh, do you know anyone who could ruin me? Professor X seemed to ignore my remark and said,  I ll show you what a real baritone sounds like. &nbsp;He then had one of his disciples get up and sing </span><span class="Normal-C24">Cortigiani, vil razza dannata</span><span class="Normal-C22"> from </span><span class="Normal-C24">Rigoletto</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;The guy was obviously a bass, and might have been a great Sparafucile had he not been so tight, if he didn t struggle so painfully with the high notes, and were he not flatter than a pancake. &nbsp;Afterward, my friend who, like me, was quite a fan of Dietrich Fischer-<wbr>Dieskau and Leonard Warren, quit Professor X, got himself another teacher, and went on to become quite excellent and quite successful. &nbsp;And I swear this conversation actually occurred as I have quoted it. &nbsp;Who could forget a conversation like this?! &nbsp;And would anyone like to guess why Leonard Warren left Professor X? <br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="REHEARSAL"></a><span class="Normal-C23">A MEMORABLE REHEARSAL</span><span class="Normal-C29"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">It was sometime in the early sixties. &nbsp;I had one of my first real professional singing gigs. &nbsp;I was one of two pros to help beef up a volunteer choir and sing occasional solos. &nbsp;It was not a great choir but the gig did pay $15.00 a week for a rehearsal and service, which was really not bad back then. &nbsp;(You could go to a movie for 50¢, gasoline was 30¢ a gallon, and my college tuition was under $500.00 per semester). &nbsp;Our director, Mitchell Messer, had real problems getting his directions across to some of the volunteers, who seemed a little dense at times. &nbsp;We were rehearsing a piece where the sopranos and altos were singing a duet for most of the page. &nbsp;On the bottom of the page the tenors and basses were supposed to make their entrance. &nbsp;Unfortunately, when we got to that point, the gentlemen screwed up royally and didn t come in.  Let s try it again from right there, one measure before the tenors and basses start said Mitch. &nbsp;We tried it again and this time the tenors and basses got it pretty well but now the sopranos and altos didn t start to sing. &nbsp; Ok, let s do it once again, from one measure before the tenors and basses start, said Mitch. &nbsp;We tried it once again, but once again the sopranos and altos didn t sing. &nbsp; Where are we? asked one of the altos. &nbsp; We re at the bottom of the page one measure before the tenors and basses enter, replied Mitch. We tried it one more time and one more time the sopranos and altos didn t sing. &nbsp; Wait a minute, where do you want us to start? asked a soprano. &nbsp; At the bottom! the bottom of the page one measure before the tenors and basses enter! repeated Mitch for the fourth time, vexedly. &nbsp;Yet again we started and yet again the ladies didn t sing. &nbsp; Wait, wait, where are we starting? asked another particularly dense soprano. &nbsp;Exasperated, Mitch glared at the sopranos and altos and said, and I quote verbatim:  Ladies, if you examine your parts, you will see at the bottom where the men come in. &nbsp;We were unable to continue for at least twenty minutes. <br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <a name="PIANO"></a><span class="Normal-C23"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C23">DO YOU NEED A PIANO?<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I once showed up, with my pianist, who was my mother, Clara Geller, to give a concert for an organization in California. &nbsp;We were escorted into the hall where the concert was to take place. &nbsp;It was quite a nice hall. &nbsp; But where is the piano? I asked. &nbsp; The piano? Do you need a piano? responded the organizers. &nbsp;I sweetly explained that, yes, I needed a piano, the piano was discussed when the concert was booked, I had requested that the piano be tuned immediately prior to the concert, this was all stated in our letter of agreement, and I had called a week or so earlier to make sure that a piano tuner had been scheduled and everything was ok.  Well, we do have a piano, but it is in the next room and I don t know how long it has been since it was last tuned. &nbsp;The door to this next room was about thirty feet from where I had to stand for the concert, down several steps from the hall, and much too narrow for the piano to fit through. &nbsp;In addition, the piano was on the opposite side of the room from the door to the hall. &nbsp;I thought that if the piano were out of tune, I could sing out of tune with it. &nbsp;I figured that if we moved the piano right next to the door leading to the hall we might make it work. &nbsp;The folks from the organization, however, did not want to move the piano closer to the door because there was a lot of furniture in the way. &nbsp;I was starting to have visions of certain famous Italian opera stars having temperamental fits, and was wondering if I wouldn t enjoy having a fit myself. &nbsp;I ve never had one, yet! &nbsp;(Some day I hope to have a great one that I can write about)! &nbsp;But I calmly explained that if we were unable to put the piano right next to the door than I might not be able to give the performance. &nbsp;Not giving the performance was unthinkable so we moved sofas and rugs out of the way in the next room and got the piano right up to the door. &nbsp;I told my mother,  Try, if possible, not to play the notes that are too badly out of tune, and remember, I m thirty feet away, play loud so I can hear you. &nbsp;I hope you will be able to hear me, and let s see what happens. &nbsp;We did it! &nbsp;My mother, a great musician, was actually able to avoid several of the worst, most out of tune notes most of the time and I must say, the people really seemed to love the concert! &nbsp;And I did get paid! &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C18"><br></span> <a name="LATRAVIATA2"></a><span class="Normal-C23">LA TRAVIATA 2</span><span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Once upon a time I was giving a program for a senior citizens group. &nbsp;The program included </span><span class="Normal-C24">Di Provenza il mar</span><span class="Normal-C22"> from </span><span class="Normal-C24">La Traviata</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;When I sing an aria I first tell the story of the opera as briefly as possible and I try to inject a bit of humor into even the darkest of tragedies. &nbsp;My script for </span><span class="Normal-C24">La Traviata</span><span class="Normal-C22">: &nbsp;A young man from the country comes to the big city, Paris. &nbsp;He meets a beautiful young girl. &nbsp;He falls in love with her; she falls in love with him. Unfortunately, she is not what we would call a  nice girl. &nbsp;Indeed, she is a courtesan, a high-<wbr>class prostitute, kept by a wealthy baron. But this makes no difference to our hero, he moves in with her at her place in the suburbs of Paris and they are starting to live together happily ever after. &nbsp;However, the young man has a father, (that s me), an older, conservative gentleman, who has grave objections to these living arrangements. &nbsp;Then I break off the story, give the audience a knowing look and say,  Does this story sound at all familiar? &nbsp;Being extremely familiar, that line usually gets a small titter. &nbsp;But on this occasion, a little old lady in the back stood up and loudly exclaimed,  My daughter!... &nbsp;The place was up for grabs. &nbsp;It got such a laugh that I have often thought I should engage a shill to sit in the audience and deliver that line whenever I tell the story of that opera, but I haven t done it  yet. &nbsp;By the way, once I sang that aria and told that story to a high school audience. When I came to that line there was no titter, only dead silence. Embarrassed, I quickly went on to the rest of the story. &nbsp;I realized afterward that every high-<wbr>schooler in the audience was a young Alfredo or Violetta, and each of them had a conservative father or mother who had grave objections to what they wanted to be doing. This was a serious problem in their lives and no laughing matter. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="CRITICS"></a><span class="Normal-C23">THE CRITICS<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">As they were setting up for the concert I was about to give, I asked Greg Crowe, the manager of the theater,  Are the critics coming?

H. Lawrence text but portions of it were predominantly poop. &nbsp;I had used some of the material from the song in a piece for clarinet and piano but facets of it were fundamentally feces. &nbsp;If I had ever encountered any of these pieces lying on the sidewalk I would have been careful not to step in it. &nbsp;Because I am a hoarder and cannot bear to put these things in the garbage where they belong, (they would stuff up the toilet), this </span><span class="Normal-C24">ménage à trois</span><span class="Normal-C22"> lived in a drawer, waiting for my heirs to dispose of them properly upon my death (at which point, of course, I would fulfill the primary prerequisite for becoming a Great Composer). &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">All three pieces, however, did have a few really good moments worth keeping. &nbsp;So I used these good parts, adding new music here and there, as needed. &nbsp;I wrote a poem which I used as a text to new music. &nbsp;When I recited this text to various folks like my mother and father, siblings, some friends, and my future ex-<wbr>wife, it removed any doubt in their minds as to my sanity, or lack thereof. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">FYI, here is the poem: <br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C28">TIME<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Yesterday I remembered... &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Tomorrow I have already forgotten... <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Where was yesterday? &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">But that was yesterday, <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">which is gone forever. <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">What was yesterday like? &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">But tomorrow is almost here. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Today I have not yet forgotten... <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">but still, I cannot remember, <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">because as life occurs it becomes yesterday <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">and tomorrow is here and is yesterday <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">and although Yesterday I remembered... <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Tomorrow I have already forgotten... &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">As I look at the poem today I think of Alzheimer s, but it really has nothing to do with any form of dementia. &nbsp;When I wrote the poem I barely knew what Alzheimer s was. &nbsp;I was thinking of contrasting elements as a source of drama. &nbsp;Yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and how we humans react to the past, present, and future regarding various conditions in our existence, seemed a perfect way to express these contrasts. &nbsp;The resultant piece, which I really like very much, was  TIME, for string quartet, baritone soloist (that would be me), a quartet of dancers and a solo dancer (that would be Professor Pirouette Plié). &nbsp;It has none of the feculence of its three sources, (and has nothing to do with the magazine). &nbsp;In using various conditions within yesterday, today, and tomorrow as the basic elements, without any specific story, the choreographer would have great freedom in developing the performance. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I carefully explained to Professor Pirouette Plié the particular aspects of the choreography and performance to be considered: &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">-<wbr> &nbsp;Each member of the dance quartet may be represented by more than one dancer so the so-<wbr>called quartet of dancers could consist of four groups of any number of dancers rather than four single dancers. &nbsp;Because this is chamber music there should not be too many bodies onstage, at the discretion of the choreographer. &nbsp;The string quartet should remain a string quartet with four players and should NOT EVER be played by a string orchestra. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">-<wbr> &nbsp;Each of the dance quartet members or groups represent one of two contrasting elements of yesterday and tomorrow while the solo dancer represents today. &nbsp;The contrasting elements might be good and evil, or happy and sad, or love and hate, or war and peace, or any other opposing conditions the choreographer might wish to represent. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">-<wbr> &nbsp;The costumes of the solo dancer and the dance quartet members should have similarities to one another but should also have distinct differences in keeping with their contrasting elements. &nbsp;Costume styles are at the discretion of the choreographer and may be traditional ballet tutus and tights or literally anything else. &nbsp;Any original ideas of the choreographer are just fine. &nbsp;And, keeping within the desire to sell lots and lots of tickets as well as saving on production costs, let s not rule out nudity. &nbsp;After all, nothing beats a great scandal! &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">-<wbr> &nbsp;Projections and interesting lighting effects such as fantastical swirling shapes of various colors shifting across the stage, or lights projected onto scrims or curtains would be quite interesting, albeit not necessary. &nbsp;An interesting set might also be excellent, but is also not necessary. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Thus, the piece could be performed in any type of venue: on a traditional proscenium stage, any non-<wbr>traditional stage, or in a recital hall. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">It would be best if the string quartet and baritone soloist were to perform live, but today one frequently encounters recorded music for dance performances (unfortunately); therefore, the string quartet and baritone might be recorded. &nbsp;It would not be possible for a live baritone to coordinate with a recorded quartet. &nbsp;If they perform live they should be downstage at one side; perhaps the dancers might somehow interact with them. &nbsp;(Don t ask the quartet to actually do anything. &nbsp;They have to play).<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">There is one specific choreographic effect at the end of the piece: the quartet is playing wild fast music to which the dancers should be leaping wildly. &nbsp;The baritone comes in with a slow phrase over the wild quartet music. &nbsp;The slow phrase has a long sustained note. In the middle of this long sustained note the quartet suddenly, unexpectedly, stops playing and the baritone concludes the music alone with the slow phrase. When the quartet suddenly stops playing, the dancers continue their wild leaping to the end of the piece as if this wild music were still playing and the lights begin to slowly fade. &nbsp;At the moment the baritone concludes the music, approximately thirty seconds later, the dancers suddenly fall motionless to the floor. &nbsp;Perhaps one second later the lights will have faded to total blackout. &nbsp;These are the ideas from which the choreographer may develop the performance. <br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I got a string quartet together from faculty members and guests. We scheduled a first rehearsal. &nbsp;We intended to record the piece because neither the string quartet nor the baritone soloist was going to perform live. &nbsp;Unfortunately, the piece is not easy to play. &nbsp;There are changing meters and interesting but moderately difficult rhythms. &nbsp;We were unable to take it nearly up to tempo and had to frequently stop. &nbsp;I occasionally had to call out the beats:  one two three four five, one two three four five six, one two three, one two three, one and two and, one two three, etc. &nbsp;Sometimes I had to bang out beats with a pencil on a music stand in an often vain attempt to keep them together. &nbsp;The playing was ragged and horribly out of tune. &nbsp;It was, after all, a first rehearsal of a difficult new piece. &nbsp;The players were excellent but they were sight-<wbr>reading. I recorded this rehearsal and crudely spliced the best moments together so the piece ran continuously from beginning to end. &nbsp;But those best moments were not very good at all. &nbsp;I offered the tape to Professor Pirouette Plié just so she could get a vague idea of what the piece would sound like. &nbsp;This was the greatest mistake I have ever made in my life, one which I will never make again. (There is an old saw,  Never show a fool unfinished work ). <br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">About two weeks and four or five rehearsals later, the string quartet was greatly improved and we made a nice recording which could be used for the performance. &nbsp;I handed the good tape to Professor Pirouette Plié. &nbsp;About a week later I asked Professor Pirouette Plié how things were going. &nbsp;She casually informed me that she could not use the good tape because all the correct tempos were  wrong and she had already started choreographing the piece from the dreadful recording of the dreadful first rehearsal which I had regrettably given her. &nbsp;I told her firmly that she could not use that tape for any performance; it was awful. &nbsp;She responded that she absolutely had to because, according to the grant which she had received, the piece had to be performed very very soon. &nbsp;At that point I considered murder and/or legal action to stop the performance, but my intrinsic laziness prevented me from doing either (although the murder part might have been lots of fun. &nbsp;I do, after all, hear voices). &nbsp;So I did nothing. &nbsp;I did go to the first performance, wondering what I would see, as Professor Pirouette Plié had never consulted me about anything. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">According to psychologists, a sense of humor goes along with a personal sense of security, and people without a sense of humor are generally deeply insecure people. &nbsp;I am deeply aware and greatly appreciative of the accomplishments of Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms, Schoenberg, and Bartók. &nbsp;How then could I possibly be secure about my own efforts? &nbsp;Thus, I have absolutely no sense of humor whatsoever about my compositions. If ever I needed one, it was at this first performance. &nbsp;&nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Upon arriving at the theater, which was the University of X Recital Hall, and perusing the program, I saw that Professor Pirouette Plié had changed the title of </span><span class="Normal-C24">TIME</span><span class="Normal-C22"> to </span><span class="Normal-C24">TIME TRIO</span><span class="Normal-C22">, which, considering that everything in the piece is based on the idea of quartet and soloist, was absurd and completely inappropriate. &nbsp;That was because she only had two dancers beside herself instead of the five minimally required. &nbsp;There were no sets, which was certainly all right, but the lighting effects were merely lights mindlessly flashing on and off for no apparent reason. &nbsp;One sees this sort of thing in elementary school productions where they don t know what else to do with lights. &nbsp;There were projections, but nothing like anything I could have imagined. &nbsp;There were no fantastical shapes of various colors shifting across the stage, or projected onto scrims or curtains. &nbsp;Professor Pirouette Plié had set up a small home slide projector, which flashed small, ugly home slides of fields and trees and city streets and other meaningless items onto a small home movie screen, all borrowed, no doubt, from audio/visual. &nbsp;The actual dancing was of mediocre student level and seemed to me to have nothing to do with the contrasts of ideas within the piece. Worst of all, the audience was laughing at the places where the quartet was grossly out of tune, terribly ragged, and I was heard calling out the beats and banging on the music stand with my pencil trying vainly to keep them together. &nbsp;In retrospect, it probably was very funny. &nbsp;John Cage might have considered this great art! &nbsp;At the moment, however, I felt everyone in the audience was laughing at me! &nbsp;I was more dreadfully embarrassed than I have ever been, before or since, in my entire life. &nbsp;When this ludicrous performance was over, almost before the weak, barely polite applause had begun, I slunk out of the theater as quickly as possible, hoping not to be noticed. &nbsp;I do not know if they tried to acknowledge me for a bow; I was revving up my car, escaping to home where I could hide. &nbsp;I did not go to the subsequent performance and the piece has not been performed since. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C17"><br></span> <a name="HOW"></a><span class="Normal-C23">HOW I BECAME A TROUBLEMAKER</span><span class="Normal-C32"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I wanted to audition for David DiChiera. &nbsp;He was the director of opera companies in Michigan and Ohio. &nbsp;At first, we were never able to find a time that was possible for both of us. &nbsp;Finally, we did arrive at a time when I could drive from Chicago to Detroit and audition for him. &nbsp;Unfortunately, when the appointed morning arrived, I awoke with a terrible virus and could hardly get out of bed and stand up. &nbsp;I never get sick! &nbsp;Why did it have to happen on this particular morning? &nbsp;I had to call and cancel the audition. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Shortly thereafter I learned of a competition held by the Opera Company of Mid-<wbr>Michigan to take place at Michigan State University in East Lansing. &nbsp;First of all, there was no age limit. &nbsp;(I was in my forties at the time and most voice competitions have age limits, usually in the early to mid-<wbr>thirties). &nbsp;Second of all, David DiChiera was announced as one of the judges. &nbsp;This would be my audition! &nbsp;Third of all, it was stated that all of the conductors and directors of every local community orchestra and choir in the area, who might engage vocal soloists, were to be invited guests and would be in attendance. &nbsp;What a great audition opportunity! &nbsp;But life is never that easy. &nbsp;The competition had only one round, to be on a Saturday ending at around 5:00 </span><span class="Normal-C33">P</span><span class="Normal-C22">.</span><span class="Normal-C33">M</span><span class="Normal-C22">. which was terrible. &nbsp;At that time I was Cantor of Oak Park Temple, just west of Chicago, and I had to be at a Bar Mitzvah service that morning until noon. &nbsp;I managed to get a time of 4:20 </span><span class="Normal-C33">P</span><span class="Normal-C22">.</span><span class="Normal-C33">M</span><span class="Normal-C22">. to sing at the competition, close to the end. &nbsp;If I drove the 250+ miles I would have to deal with the ever-<wbr>clogged-<wbr>up traffic around Chicago. &nbsp;Beyond Chicago, when I would emerge from the traffic, I might have to average 90 or 100 mph for the rest of the trip. &nbsp;This is easily possible (and lots of fun) in the middle of the desert in some of the western states, and even legal on the German </span><span class="Normal-C24">Autobahnen</span><span class="Normal-C22">, but certainly not possible on the radar infested roads of Michigan where the speed limit was 55 mph. &nbsp;I could get to either Midway or O Hare Airport by 1:00 </span><span class="Normal-C33">P</span><span class="Normal-C22">.</span><span class="Normal-C33">M</span><span class="Normal-C22">. but there was no flight going to the nearest airport in Grand Rapids which would arrive before 5:30 </span><span class="Normal-C33">P</span><span class="Normal-C22">.</span><span class="Normal-C33">M</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;Charter or private flights were prohibitively expensive and would have to wait until I became filthy rich (for which I m still waiting). &nbsp;But I found a great solution. &nbsp;A small company at Midway Airport gave flying lessons for only $300.00 a lesson. &nbsp;The pilot/instructor would fly me to East Lansing, fly me home again, and teach me how to fly myself in the bargain. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">On the appointed day I got up early, got my stuff together, did the Bar Mitzvah and was in my Ford Club Wagon and out of the Oak Park Temple parking lot by 12:01 </span><span class="Normal-C33">P</span><span class="Normal-C22">.</span><span class="Normal-C33">M</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;I arrived at Midway by 12:45 </span><span class="Normal-C33">P</span><span class="Normal-C22">.</span><span class="Normal-C33">M</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;The plane, a tiny single-<wbr>engine Piper something-<wbr>or-<wbr>other, was, outside of the wings, smaller than my Ford Club Wagon on the outside and much less roomy inside. &nbsp;It was waiting for me on the tarmac, warming up, and making more noise than I could have ever imagined. &nbsp;I introduced myself to the pilot/instructor, a gentleman named Larry Tucker, I somehow squeezed myself, my clothes, and my music, into the plane, and, after lurching along the runway, off we took! &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">The plane bounced violently on every gentle zephyr that came along. &nbsp;The Bobs at the old Riverview Amusement Park in Chicago, and The Cyclone at Coney Island in New York were never as exciting as this plane ride. &nbsp;Larry and I could communicate only through a microphone and headset because the engine noise was so loud. &nbsp;I was having visions of beautiful young stewardesses serving food and beverages (yes, in those bygone days they served food on airplanes), but on this plane it was not to be. &nbsp;Larry told me how to handle the wheel and I actually flew the plane, turning to the left, turning to the right, going up and going down, carefully and never too much. &nbsp;I could watch the tiny white waves on the surface of Lake Michigan and see the tiny little cars and trucks, like ants, scurrying in slow motion along the highways of Michigan. &nbsp;It was an extraordinary, exhilarating experience which I would love to do again. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Larry landed the plane at the so-<wbr>called airport in East Lansing around 3:15 </span><span class="Normal-C33">P</span><span class="Normal-C22">.</span><span class="Normal-C33">M</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;The one runway was a tiny bumpy grassy strip. The terminal was a tiny building with only one person in attendance. &nbsp;Larry had radioed ahead to have the attendant call a taxicab but the cab never arrived, so the airport attendant kindly offered to drive us himself to Michigan State University. &nbsp;Since airplane traffic at this airport was a very rare and unusual event, it would be no problem for him to be gone for a few hours. <br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">We arrived by 3:40 </span><span class="Normal-C33">P</span><span class="Normal-C22">.</span><span class="Normal-C33">M</span><span class="Normal-C22">. giving me forty minutes to chill out, warm up, and listen to some of my competition through closed doors. &nbsp;I heard one amazing mezzo, Candace De Lattre, who lived and taught in Flint. &nbsp;She told me later that she had sung Sieglinde in Seattle. &nbsp;In the competition she sang </span><span class="Normal-C24">O mio Fernando</span><span class="Normal-C22"> from </span><span class="Normal-C24">La Favorita</span><span class="Normal-C22"> and Fricka s confrontation scene with Wotan from </span><span class="Normal-C24">Die Walküre</span><span class="Normal-C22"> and she sounded absolutely magnificent. &nbsp; $#!+, I said to myself. &nbsp; There goes my first prize. &nbsp;But during my wait for my turn to sing I learned something much more disturbing. &nbsp;The opera company had some sort of loose association with the university and employed several of the music faculty members. &nbsp;There had been some sort of political upheaval between the university and the opera company, the details of which I do not remember. &nbsp;Thus, all of the music faculty, including the conductor of the company, Gustav Meier, were not there at the competition. &nbsp;The company stage director, Dugg McDonough, not a local resident, was also not there. &nbsp;These were the only two people with the company who might engage a soloist. &nbsp;Furthermore, all of the conductors and directors of every local community orchestra and choir in the area, who might engage vocal soloists, who were invited guests, and who were supposed to be in attendance were all not there. &nbsp;Finally, David DiChiera s assistant had indeed telephoned the evening before to get directions to the place  but that was the last they heard from or about Mr. DiChiera. &nbsp;He simply never showed up to judge and did not call. &nbsp;(Fortunately, they did have two other judges). &nbsp;Suddenly, every one of my reasons for being there and participating had evaporated! &nbsp;Then I went in to sing. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">My two selections were </span><span class="Normal-C24">Cortigiani, vil razza dannata</span><span class="Normal-C22"> from </span><span class="Normal-C24">Rigoletto</span><span class="Normal-C22"> and </span><span class="Normal-C24">Largo al factotum</span><span class="Normal-C22"> from </span><span class="Normal-C24">Il Barbiere di Siviglia</span><span class="Normal-C22">. &nbsp;As I handed my music to the pianist I thought to myself,  I am not doing the wise thing. &nbsp;I am singing in this competition with a pianist whom I do not know and with whom I have had neither a rehearsal nor a run-<wbr>through and I am handing her two of the most difficult arias in the repertoire to play. &nbsp;I thought about my dreadful, albeit successful, audition for the Vienna </span><span class="Normal-C24">Kammeroper</span><span class="Normal-C22"> three years earlier (</span><span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#MYFAVORITEAUDITIONS" style="color:#800000;">Click here</span><span class="Normal-C0"> to go to </span><span class="Normal-C34">HUMILIATION</span><span class="Normal-C0"> in </span><span class="Normal-C16">MY FAVORITE AUDITIONS</span><span class="Normal-C0"> above</a></span><span class="Normal-C22">). &nbsp;A few seconds later I knew I had nothing to worry about. &nbsp;The pianist, Deborah Moriarty, was one of the finest pianists I have ever encountered. She played with complete technical assurance, musicality, and sensitivity to everything I was doing as if we had worked together for years. &nbsp;She was a total inspiration to me. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Since my audition was near the end, I had not long to wait for the outcome. &nbsp;I do not remember who won first prize. &nbsp;Candace De Lattre won second prize and I won third prize. &nbsp;My third prize was $300.00, so it paid for my flight. &nbsp;However, there was a requirement I had not known about: as a prizewinner, I had to sing my two arias at a concert the following afternoon. &nbsp;This concert was no doubt mentioned in the in the competition requirements but I had not noted it. &nbsp;A distinguished and beloved member of the Michigan State University music faculty had just died and a special memorial service was to be held at exactly the same time as the concert. &nbsp;All of the music faculty, including the conductor of the opera company, Gustav Meier, were going to be at the special memorial service, not at the concert. &nbsp;I asked whether newspaper critics had been invited to review the concert. &nbsp;They had not been invited and there would be no reviews. &nbsp;At that point, Larry Tucker, who had waited for me to return with him, came up to me and said,  Well, I have to leave and get back to Chicago. &nbsp;Are you coming with me? &nbsp; Let me find out, I replied. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I went to one of the ladies who was running the proceedings and asked her,  Is it necessary that I participate in the concert tomorrow? &nbsp;I had engaged an airplane to fly here because I had to sing in Oak Park, IL this morning and had no other way of getting here. &nbsp;I had not known about the concert before today, I have no transportation here, and the pilot and plane have to return to Chicago now. &nbsp;If I don t return now I will be stuck. &nbsp;(I said nothing to the lady about my disappointment that all the people whose attendance was promised by the competition, and for whom I came and expected to sing, were all not there). &nbsp; Wait a minute and let me find out, the lady said. &nbsp;After conferring with her colleagues for a few moments she said to me,  It is required that you sing at the concert. &nbsp;If you do not sing at the concert tomorrow you will have to forfeit the prize. &nbsp;I then asked,  Would it be possible to get transportation to a nearby motel and get a ride back here tomorrow for the concert? &nbsp; I think that would not be a problem, she replied. &nbsp; OK, then everything will be fine and I ll do it, I told the lady. &nbsp;I said good-<wbr>bye and thank you to Larry who then returned with the airport attendant to his plane at the airstrip and took off for Chicago without me. &nbsp;Another very nice lady then said that as soon as they cleaned up she would be driving me to a motel and that there were several nearby restaurants. &nbsp;We chatted amiably as we drove to the motel. &nbsp;When she dropped me off she said to me,  You know, I am very surprised. &nbsp;You re a very nice person. &nbsp;In amazement, I asked,  Why do you say that? &nbsp; Well, they told me you are a troublemaker, she replied. &nbsp;Bewildered, I asked,  Why? &nbsp; Because you didn t want to sing at the concert, she told me. &nbsp;I explained to my driver lady that I had merely asked politely if I could be excused from the concert, which I had not known about before today, because I would have to miss my plane ride home. &nbsp;I further told my driver lady that I had said nothing to the lady at the contest about how everything promised, for which I entered the competition, fell though: that Mr. DiChiera, Gustav Meier, and Dugg McDonough, as well as all the orchestra conductors and choir directors from the area who might hire a soloist were supposed to be in attendance but were not. &nbsp;By my missing the concert, which none of these people would hear, and which, furthermore, would not be reviewed, I would save the expense of a motel and transportation back to Chicago. &nbsp;When the lady at the contest to whom I spoke explained to me that I was required to sing and would have to forfeit the prize if I didn t, I immediately agreed to perform at the concert. &nbsp;I further said that I blamed nobody and none of this was anyone s fault; we are all in the grip of circumstance. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">My driver lady was completely understanding. &nbsp;She picked me up the following afternoon, and drove me back for the concert which went very well. &nbsp;It was too bad almost no one was there. &nbsp;I wish it had been recorded because I felt I sang well and Ms. Moriarty was a pianistic joy. &nbsp;Afterwards my driver lady dropped me at the Amtrak station. &nbsp;I had a wonderfully spicy dinner at a fabulous, very simple Korean family restaurant across the street from the station, took the train to Chicago, and was picked up by my future ex-<wbr>wife. &nbsp;The following morning we drove out to Midway Airport, I picked up my Ford Club Wagon, and life was back to normal. <br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">I never did find out why David DiChiera never did show up. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">And that is how I became a troublemaker. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="THENATUREOFGENIUS"></a><span class="Normal-C23">THE NATURE OF GENIUS<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">It was 1978. &nbsp;I had recently lost over fifty pounds. &nbsp;I planned on wearing my tails for an upcoming debut recital at Carnegie Recital Hall (now Weill Recital Hall) but without those fifty pounds the trousers fit me like a tent, so I went to a tailor to have them taken in. &nbsp;The tailor explained that because I had lost so much weight, the trousers could not simply be taken in, they had to be completely recut. &nbsp;When I told the tailor about my upcoming recital he told me that in his youth he had sung as a baritone in the opera chorus in his native city, Buenos Aires. &nbsp;He then asked me who was sponsoring my debut. &nbsp;I explained that I was sponsoring it myself. Thereupon he insisted that he would not charge me anything for recutting and altering my trousers. &nbsp;I told him I did not wish to accept this but he was adamant. &nbsp;Finally he agreed to accept tickets for himself and his wife. &nbsp;As I left the suit with him I asked him,  Aren t you going to take my measurements? &nbsp;He replied,  No, I don t have to. &nbsp;I was nonplussed by this and frankly a bit concerned, but when I returned for the suit the following week I was amazed to find that the suit now fit absolutely perfectly and indeed, I believe I have never owned any article of clothing that fit so well! &nbsp;And he had done this simply by looking at me! &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">In the world of music we have composers who create magnificent works of timeless beauty, and we have interpreters: singers, instrumentalists, conductors, who beguile their audiences by bringing this music to life from the printed page. &nbsp;Because of their special capability we call these people geniuses; we applaud them; we flock to hear their work. &nbsp;But is not this tailor, who has the ability to simply look at a person and make a perfect garment without taking measurements, also a genius? &nbsp;Does he not also have a special capability quite out of the ordinary? &nbsp;But he receives no applause from the multitudes beyond the praise of an occasional appreciative customer. &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">Imagine, if you will, this tailor taking his sewing machine center stage at Carnegie Hall, sewing a perfect pair of trousers in front of a sold-<wbr>out house, and having the huge audience rise to its feet applauding wildly, shouting,  </span><span class="Normal-C24">Bravissimo!</span><span class="Normal-C22"> &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C25"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#800000;">CLICK HERE</span><span class="Normal-C0"> TO GO TO THE TABLE OF CONTENTS </a><br></span> <span class="Normal-C0"><a href="#TABLEOFCONTENTS" style="color:#0000ff;">ON THE TOP OF THE PAGE</a></span><span class="Normal-C18"> <br></span> <span class="Normal-C22"><br></span> <a name="STAGEDIRECTIONOFTHEYEAR"></a><span class="Normal-C23">STAGE DIRECTION OF THE YEAR</span><span class="Normal-C22"> &nbsp;<br></span> <span class="Normal-C21"><br></span> <span class="Normal-C22">On page 120 of the G.
