Well, we did it! We got a libretto completed and it looks like it will live on stage next year for Eastman's Women in Music Festival 2011 ... and maybe even more. Now that the opera libretto actually exists anything is possible.
It' a funny thing about creating something. If you just "do" it, then it doesn't matter the path that it takes. Something good will happen simply because there was joy in the creation with no expectation. The life of the work just takes on an energy independent of the creator and 'lives'.
This is what is happening with LILY. Good things are coming out of the joy of our creation ... it is an organic process. The libretto lives; Lily Bart is dead ... so sing, Lily ... SING!
