Dear Bill,

Hope you're doing well.

On Friday, September 24, The First Bluebird in The Morning, my collaboration with composer Carlos Simon, premiered on the LA Opera website. The piece is about a young man's conversation with a bluebird in the days before he goes on parole.   I'm thrilled to share the beautiful work of Carlos Simon, Joshua Blue, Jamar Roberts, Howard Watkins, Lloyd Knight, Anja Wood, and Marlan Barry. My words were in wonderful hands!

Here's the link. It's a short piece about 10 minutes. If you use the subtitles, it adds to the experience.

Hope you get a chance to watch it.

Take care,

Sandra
