Alums at opera institute this summer
Two alumni are giving the Taos Opera Institute in Taos, News Mexico an OSU flavor this summer.
Tony Cho, a 1998 OSU piano performance major alumnus, is serving as a faculty opera coach, and Christopher Reed, a 2011 piano performance alum, will serve as staff pianist for the festival, which runs now through June 30th.
Cho was hired this past spring by Tulsa Opera as pianist/coach for their production of “Aida” and has been invited back for “The Marriage of Figaro” next season. Reed will begin his doctoral degree at the Eastman School of Music in New York this fall. Both are former students of OSU Professor of Piano Thomas Lanners.
