Here I present dramatis personae. The main players in my musical world. Though lots of this will be explained, here’s a lineup of the main characters thus far. Any more will be introduced as needed.
Sadie: me. La célesteuse. Yes, I made that term up.
Jessie: principal cellist. In my class. Love her to pieces. Super inappropriate. Which is why she’s awesome.
Eric: former concertmaster. Concertmaster for three years, then left orchestra his last year to sing in choir. Easy on the eyes.
Philippe: the celesta. Yes, I named the celesta. We spent a lot of time together. His full name is Philippe Louispensier-Fermat Clopin LeBombardier, but we all call him Philippe.
Dr. Beauregard: our fearless maestro. Cellist who became a conductor. My conducting teacher and my idol. When he says jump, we not only say How High, we say Thank You For Letting Us. Sir. He is also a Thing Of Beauty and a Joy Forever.
Dr. Adams: the main choir director.
Dr. Jerome: voice teacher, opera director.
(When we come to opera stories, I’ll introduce the singers as necessary.)
That’s all for now.
