| Comments: | OLO is a young company in the process of development and expansion. Chorus activities thus far have been limited to production needs which included the musical, My Fair Lady (1994), Amahl and the Night Visitors (1994), and Cavalleria Rusticana (1997). The foundation of our choruses came from annual auditions held for the purpose of casting the productions. We would like to be able to include talented students from the conservatory and universities, and members of the public who wish to participate, but they must be able to read music and be heard over an orchestra." |
