Google Doodle Honors Edmond Dédé
You
have heard me speak of him often, read of him in my recent press, and
heard his music in our concerts and in our 2018 production, "Le Lions de
la Reconstruction!"
But, I am inspired by this to once again ask for your help in bringing his (never performed) opera to the stage. "Morgiane ou Le Sultan d'Ispahan"
is 550 pages fully orchestrated, but still in his original handwriting.
It needs to be transcribed into orchestral scores, translated from
French, and then produced. We need around $20K. $12K of which is just
for transcription.
Only the overture has been performed- thanks to Richard Rosenberg.

I am truly Thankful, and I wish you all a wonderful Holiday Season,
