WORLD PREMIERE: CALL OUT Virtual Album, 2020
How do you not get to Carnegie Hall? Schedule a Carnegie Hall debut and announce it just before a worldwide pandemic. Bass-baritone Zachary James asked me to write a song for that recital, and then the world shut down, so Zach reimagined it into a virtual album of new works by female composers. Lyricist Robert Maddock wondered if perhaps Pinocchio decided being a real boy was too much. In our song, Zach’s Pinocchio prays to the Blue Fairy to be turned back into a wooden puppet.
