Brits Provide Frivolity and Serious Fun
[…] plummy role in The Bear. The stage design (by Stephen Dobay) is a simplified reflection of a large painting of the London Zoo. James Blachly conducted the orchestra and paced the work with aplomb. It is unlikely that The Zoo will find anything like the number of performances that Sullivan’s works with Gilbert receive regularly, but in this imaginative, colorful, and musically satisfying production it made a great companion piece for The Bear. Stephen Salters and Janna Baty (KathyWittman photo) The pièce de resistance of the evening was an utterly brilliant performance of Walton’s wonderful comic opera The Bear. Walton’s only previous operatic work was a large three-act opera, Troilus and Cressida, based on Chaucer rather than Shakespeare.

[…] and when he heard it he liked it and invited me to come play at the restaurant. Samuel Carl Adams was another composer I knew from Yale, so he and I got together and just started playing there twice a month, and we would invite other musicians from the school. Our main group was me on pans and Sam Adams on bass. We had different drummers come in–Charlie Dye from Hartford, Shaun Dixon or Kenneth Salters from NY–Every now and then Mariel would come in, and Maura Valenti would also play harp with us. Ming kind of kicked-off the CD–He encouraged me to record it and he helped fund the making of the CD.
