Awards and reviews

July 2015

Metcalf sets the words as recitative, with occasional flowering into an arioso where Thomas offers a song...The performance is lively, though a coupole of the singers sound trained at times...In many ways this is an attractive addition to the small-scale opera repertoire...Metcalf's opera is charming, affectionate, diverting; Thomas's radio play is a great listening experience.
