"Neither", Music by Morton Feldman. Text by Samuel Beckett. Performed by Cyndia Sieden
Cyndia Sieden had the best stage presence of the three, but I wasn’t as impressed with her singing. Either she was mic’d poorly or her voice wasn’t as strong as Shay Thomson or Komsi. This observation should be taken with a grain of salt though, as I have watched very few operas.

You said “Duchamp in a dancehall.” nyuk nyuk nyuk
I think this series is more or less failed. Personally, I love Feldman and his opera set was pretty nice so it was good. But the other two was disappointed ,literally. Specially, though I do love John zorn, his opera was not good!!! at all.
just so you all know–opera singers are never mic’d. that is their voice, and their voice only.
