What Magic Reveals

"In 1908, a young girl and her father go to a magic show in Chicago, where there’s more to the act than meets the eye." That is all the synopsis that Stacy Garrop and librettist Jerre Dye tease us with. WHAT MAGIC REVEALS is an 18-minute chamber opera for 6 singers and piano; it was the first collaboration between Garrop and Dye, leading to their opera THE TRANSFORMATION OF JANE DOE (also available from Presser).
