Aired on Tuesday, October 25th.

"The Italian Girl" will be staged at the TCC VanTrease PACE on Friday the 28th (at 7:30pm) as well as Sunday the 30th (at 2:30pm).

Our guest is Aaron Beck, who was named the new artistic director of Tulsa Opera back in August. Beck has been with Tulsa Opera for a dozen years, previously serving as the director of the company's education and community outreach programs as well as its artistic administrator. Beck joins us to talk about the gala 75th-anniversary season of Tulsa Opera, which is just now getting underway with a staging of "The Italian Girl," Gioachino Rossini's lusty comedy of errors. Beck tells us about this exciting production in particular, as well as other works that Tulsa Opera will stage in the coming months.
