It is long overdue, however, that I report what a fantastic time I had singing Colline in Atlanta Opera’s La Boheme.  We had a stellar cast with great chemistry and energy to boot.  Wonderful, full houses and all the performances were received with great enthusiasm.  I also received a nice nod of approval from the local reviewer.  Considering that Colline is not quite central to the plot, I’m happy for any mention.  So I’ll definitely take it.

“Bass Matthew Curran, the philosopher Colline, solidly offered a farewell to his beloved coat.”          Pierre Ruhe – Atlanta Journal-Consitution

Many thanks to all of my wonderful colleagues in that production and the fantastic staff and family at Atlanta Opera.
