Summary:"I'm doing a lot of more of the character roles: Herod in 'Salome' (for the Canadian Opera Company in the spring of 2013) and Aegisth in 'Elektra,' (in Detroit in October 2014), and doing a fair bit of recital work and oratorio, a lot of Beethoven 'Ninth,' and Verdi 'Requiem,' things like that," said Margison over the line from Montreal. "I'm sort of trying to, not to get out of opera altogether, but slowing down a bit. Turning my energy and attention to other things. Doing a lot of teaching and master classes and mentoring young people." On Saturday, the COMC will recycle a few numbers from last year's annual shebang such as "Place in the Choir," and "We Rise Again." They'll also stroll down memory lane with some tunes from last year's tour to Ireland such as "Fields of Athenry," "Fillimiooriay," and "Danny Boy."
