It was 35 years ago today: the first recording of John Adams’s groundbreaking opera Nixon in China, with a libretto by Alice Goodman, was released on Nonesuch. You can hear it again here.

The Grammy-winning recording of the piece—“a milestone in American operatic history” (Boston Globe)— performed by Orchestra of St. Luke’s led by Edo de Waart and starring James Maddalena as Richard Nixon, "has an eloquence not since matched," says Los Angeles Times’ Mark Swed. 

The premiere performances of Nixon in China, directed by Peter Sellars with choreography by Mark Morris, took place at Houston Grand Opera and Brooklyn Academy of Music in 1987, and the Kennedy Center and Netherlands Opera in 1988.

August 7, 1974 was the date that French acrobat Philippe Petit made his unthinkable (and quite illegal) tightrope walk across the Twin Towers of the original World Trade Center. As I chronicled in my earlier post, my good friend and sometime collaborator Jim Moore was right there with him as assistant and chronicler. A front row seat at hair-raising history! I wanted to let you know about two…
