Baltimore Sun music critic, Tim Smith reviews Generations and other operas in the Opera Etudes performance. See quote below, or read it here.
Most impressive to me was "Generations," a snapshot of four intersecting lives in a single family. Emily Koh's subtly spicy score produced some strong lyricism (there's a vivid quartet along the way). Katherine Krueger wrote the effective libretto and also performed as the Grandmother in the vibrant cast, joined by Alexandra Iranfar (Daughter), Danielle Edwards (Mother) and Annie Laing (Great-Grandmother). Brunyate provided the telling stage direction.
