Miami U. takes opera prize

By Terry Morris | Wednesday, January 13, 2010, 03:02 PM

A Miami University production of Benjamin Britten’s “Paul Bunyan” has captured second place in the 2010 National Opera Association competition in Atlanta, Ga.

Miami Opera finished only behind the University of Memphis production of “Hansel and Gretel” in Category III of the juried competition for small professional opera companies and opera training programs, including universities.

Judges chose winners based on DVD submissions.

The 2008 production was directed by Eric Friedman, conducted by Ben Smolder and produced by Mari Opatz-Muni.
