Title: Anybody interested in taping a classical gig in the Balt/DC area?
Post by: divamum on July 15, 2006, 06:23:40 PM
(sorry if this is the wrong forum - couldn't think where else to put it!!  <grovels to Brian in the hope of escaping chastisement, or at the very least a quiet grumble>)

Anybody out there who might like to try their hand at stealthing a show?   Gig is FREE (gratis, no money) as part of  the Artscape Festival in Baltimore, which is pretty fun in and of itself (art, jewellery, LOTS of bands, good street food etc -  tons of stuff www.artscape.org)

Shows at 2p and 5p Saturday and Sunday 22nd/23rd at the Maryland Institute of Art's Brown Center (the big glass building)

Show is "The Medium",  about a fraudulent  Medium who hits the bottle and goes spectacularly nuts with tragic results when she thinks she encounters a real ghost.  Performed  by professional opera singers with piano accompaniment, presented by the Baltimore Opera Company. We're in rehearsals now and it's shaping up to be a great little melodrama - the production is going for pretty spooky,   at least hints at a whole lotta sex, booze and weirdness going on behind the scenes, and  the not-typical "opera" music is likely to have broad appeal - (sounds more like movie music than grand opera - just to reassure those who may be a little operaphobic!). 

PM me if you think you might get there!

If you can get permission for open taping, I might be able to swing it...

Thanks, but it's not so much the equipment issue for me...while I'm a scumbag in my everyday life, I try to keep my taping on the up and up.

Thanks guys - appreciate the responses. 

alas, I think open taping'll be out of the question (although I may just ask and see - it's a non-union show, although it's a union company, hence why I'm not sure- I'll report back if I get an ok).  I can be pretty sure there will be <cough>  some AT-based stealth taping going on <coughisntthatwhattapirspousesareforcoughmumblecough>, but just thought I'd throw it here out in case anybody w/a hell of lot more experience (and better gear) was interested and/or was going to be at Artscape anyway (especially somebody with some DPA4060s lol!!)

Keep those cards and letters coming!  :)
