Every year, Duke Ellington puts on an Opera Workshop (well, maybe not every year – 2020 was pre-empted by the pandemic and 2021 had to be remote, but otherwise...). The event features Duke's vocal music program and its seniors, but sometimes the instrumental music program gets to help out. So this year, Owen joined the pit orchestra (and his friends) for Una Notte di Mille Stella.
Allen went the first night, and found the performance so compelling that he joined Nora and I for the Sunday matinee. Afterwards, we took Owen out for a steak dinner to celebrate what's been a pretty amazing sophomore year, with hopefully, so much more to come.
