Katrina Thurman: Rosabella

From the composer of Guys and Dolls, the original 1956 production was termed “one of the most ambitiously operatic works ever written for Broadway.”  An aging Italian vineyard owner proposes to a young waitress by mail but, leery of revealing his age, sends her a picture of his handsome ranch foreman.  Celebrated Metropolitan Opera baritone and current associate professor of voice at the University of Oklahoma, Kim Josephson stars as Tony; soprano Katrina Thurman, an Oklahoma native recently acclaimed for her performances with Lyrique en mer, Shreveport Opera and Sacramento Opera, portrays his beloved Rosabella.  Dorothy Danner directs this Tulsa Opera premiere.
