Hello all! Long time no post. We've been back in Frankfurt for 2 1/2 weeks now, and it's been great to be back. Brenda is currently working at Oper Frankfurt for the first time since ending her full-time employment here last August. She's considered a "guest" by the opera house (i.e. freelancer), but at the end of the day her experience is basically the same as it was before. She gets to work in the city we call home (or at least our German home) with people she's been working with for years. If you're interested, you can check out a few pictures from her current opera (a revival of Verdi's Rigoletto from last season) here.
On the topic of Brenda singing, the Lyric Opera of Chicago announced their 18/19 season, which means we can officially tell you that Brenda will be singing in Chicago in March of 2019. Here's the link in case you'd like to learn more. Brenda will also be returning to Carnegie Hall on April 14, 2019 with the English Concert to sing the title role in Handel's Semele. No other companies have announced their seasons yet, but there will be more gigs to tell you about in the coming weeks.
Rowan is enjoying being back in Frankfurt, and he especially likes all the nearby parks. By Frankfurt standards it's been cold lately (highs in the 30s), but we've actually had some welcome sunshine, which really brightens up the typically cloudy German winter. We'll be mostly sticking around Frankfurt for the next few months, although we will spend three weeks in Munich beginning in the spring and we're seriously considering a short trip to Scotland next month. We've never been to Scotland and since we're in the neighborhood (Europe is all one neighborhood, right?) we might as well pop up for a visit.
It sounds like Rowan is up from his nap. I hope you all have a great rest of your week, and we'll talk to you again soon!
