Back to San Jose to see Falstaff again, this time with the other cast than the one that we saw on Sept. 12. (Opera San Jose presents eight performances of each opera, four performances by “Cast 1” and four by “Cast A”.) The sets and direction were the same as before, just different singers.
Our cast (Cast 1):
Falstaff: Steven Condy
Fenton: Marc Schreiner
Alice Ford: Rebekah Camm
Ford: Evan Brummel
Bardolfo: Chris Coyne
Pistola: Johann Schram Reed
Meg Page: Buffy Baggott
Dame Quickly: Patrice Houston
Dr. Caius: Michael Desnoyers
Nannetta: Sarah Duchovnay
Conductor: Ming Luke
Director: Jose Maria Condemi
Again, the performance was highly enjoyable, though it didn’t quite reach the level of Cast A. My friends who saw only Cast 1 were very pleased with what they heard. I’ll leave it with a strong beta.
