Nothing on the spring schedule had whetted my anticipation more than Kate Soper's The Romance of the Rose, which was to have had its premiere at Peak Performances on April 2. It has been postponed, along with everything else. Soper is taking to YouTube to post a few fragmentary musical ideas and share insights from her keen literary-musical imagination. In the first of these, above, she reads a passage from Virginia Woolf's Orlando, with self-generated vocal accompaniment. I wrote about Soper's Ipsa Dixit in 2017.
