San Francisco Opera's fall season was so satisfying on artistic level that it seemed almost impossible that David Gockley could continue the company's string of successes all the way through to the end. And he hasn't. While the current Otello isn't nearly the disaster that last visited the stage of the War Memorial Opera House, there isn't much to recommend it unless you want to listen to it with your...

It's been a long time since I've had postpartum issues with big performances. Since I've made the switch from student musician to professional musician some years ago, I've been able put away the music of a concert and move on to the next project without too much of a thought of what I just did.

I posted last week about my meeting with PYP Maestro, David Hattner. Our meeting left me excited that I would be attending the opening concert of their season on Saturday evening (the first concert of the PYP I have ever attended) but really nothing prepared me for the experience I actually had.

Tenor Johan Botha is making "Otello" his signature role. SAN FRANCISCO – There is a signature moment in Act 2 of Giuseppi Verdi's "Otello" in which the title character confronts his jealous demon – and becomes one with it. It can be a throwaway moment, or it can cement the drama of this four-act operatic masterpiece. On Sunday afternoon in San Francisco's War Memorial...
