How Can He Live Without His Euridice
from Orpheus and Eurydice...ish
Libretto by Michelle Telford and Kendra Harder
Libretto by Michelle Telford and Kendra Harder

In the classic tale of Orpheus & Eurydice, Eurydice is bitten by a prop snake and now prepares herself for death in the classic drawn-out death aria. This version takes the Gluck classic "How can I live without my Euridice?" and turns it on its head to "How can Orpheus live with out me?"
This comic aria is just a few too many dashes of overdramaticism, which should be just enough for the overdramatic soprano. Instrumentation: Soprano (C4 - B5), Piano
Duration: 4.5' Price: $12 CAD Sheet music is available for purchase through the composer at kendraharder@outlook.com
