Words First: Talking Text in OperaMatt Boresi and Creating in Covid TimesWe start out this episode with a short quip from Mezzo-soprano, Emily Fons, talking about not waiting for the ideal moment to create. (https://www.emilyfons.com/).Next, is a brief interview with San Francisco based conductor and prompter, Robert Mollicone (https://www.robertmollicone.com/).
