Orpheus powered by LP

Unfortunately the server rejected my mail because I used the wrong 
adress: Nevertheless, here my yesterday's message:

Tonight in Dresden (Germany) a premiere will take place: Gluck's 
"Orpheus and Euydike" (Vienna version) will be performed in
a staging made by the former Forsythe-dancer Thomas McManus. The dancers 
are students of the Palucca school for dance Dresden,
the orchestra and soloists are students, too. (University of music 
Dresden) In addition to Gluck's music we will perform some arias and
recitativos of Johann Christian Bach, who composed this pieces for his 
own performance of Gluck's opera. I trained the chorus for this
performance and managed the rehearsals for the soloists.
I'm telling that because I made the orchestral material for this 
additional Bach pieces with LilyPond and - as far as I can tell -
the orchestra likes it!
