Cinderella - Opera by Alma Deutscher
Cinderella - an opera by Alma Deutscher. Piano Vocal ScoreCinderella - eine Oper von Alma Deutcher. KlavierauszugAlma Deutscher's opera Cinderella was first performed in 2015 when she was ten and was successively revised and expanded until she was fifteen. In Alma's take on the traditional fairy-tale, Cinderella is not just a pretty girl who wins the Prince because of her dainty foot. Cinderella is a talented composer, envied and oppressed by her stepmother, who runs an opera house, and by her stepsisters, both operatic would-be divas. Cinderella nevertheless triumphs because of her talent: Cinderella and the Prince, a poet, will find one another, just as a poem finds its melody. "A young talent's sensational burst to prominence... The once-in-a-lifetime opera-going event that had audiences standing and cheering." Opera Today, 2017. "When the orchestral version of Cinderella premiered in Vienna, Alma Deutscher became an instant shooting star. Cinderella is exhilarating, enchantingly moving, and spiced with finely ground comedy, and it was deservedly honoured with a standing ovation." Orpheus Magazine (2021). "an opera of astounding wit, craft, and musical beauty... A smart producer would mount Cinderella on Broadway. In addition to its comedic force, its score puts recent musicals to shame, whether from the Disney franchise or Andrew Lloyd Webber." (The New Criterion, 2018).

"In every generation, there is a chosen one. She alone shall stand against the vampires, demons and forces of darkness. She is the slayer." Spike's trademark coat cost $2,000 from a top fashion store. It was then run over repeatedly by a truck to give it that distressed look.

The Yale Russian Chorus (YRC) is a unique phenomenon-part singing group, part fraternity, part discussion group-that started in 1953 at Yale at the height of the Cold War, a time when exhibiting a strong interest in matters Russian and Soviet could be seen as suspect in the USA. It developed into a respectable tenor-bass chorus, which has participated in and won prizes at major international choral festivals. In celebration of the 70th anniversary of the Chorus's founding, the YRC Alumni Association has published this new songbook, to document music that the Chorus has sung in the past and to provide a resource for the future. We hope that it will also prove useful for other singing groups that wish to incorporate this music into their repertoire.
