I speak with countertenor David Daniels in the noon hour on GPB. He's starring as Orpheus, who retrieves his wife from the underworld, in the Atlanta Opera's current production of Orfeo ed Euridice. Remaining shows are tonight, Friday evening and Sunday afternoon.
On Midday Music we also hear recordings from the Gryphon Trio, Manuel Barrueco and the Cypress Quartet, who all perform in these parts this week (in Auburn, LaGrange and Augusta, respectively). Please follow the links in the concert list above for details.
UPDATE: The Gryphon Piano Trio's appearance in Auburn has been canceled and will be rescheduled at a later date.
