LISTINGS live and livestreamed STORIES profiles, previews and interviews RECORD REVIEWS and Listening Room Barbe & Doucet’s Don Pasquale PHOTO: KK DUNDAS “It’s a story that you could say has an old, overused plot that's not relevant. It’s about an older man who believes he’s irresistible to women. This is a different take on that story, but he’s not going to take no for an answer. He wants to be able to conquer and have his conquests. The good thing is that it’s done in a very funny way,” continues Leech on the topic of Pasquale. The season is quite heavy, so I think having some levity in there will be welcomed by our cast.” Story on page 33. 8 FOR OPENERS | Listening Fresh DAVID PERLMAN STORIES & INTERVIEWS 12 CLASSICAL AND BEYOND | It’s time to ditch the tails | MAX CHRISTIE 14 IN WITH THE NEW | Keying up for an inventive spring | WENDALYN BARTLEY 16 ART OF SONG | A new journey - reimagining art song for the 2020s | STEPHANIE CONN 18 MUSIC THEATRE | Something to crow about, and a toast to new creation | JENNIFER PARR 14 thewholenote.com April & May 2024 | 5
