Opera Without Singing Over Network Tonight

Claiming to have "the greatest idea since opera was invented," the Radio Workshop airs the world's first opera without singing at 9:30 tonight over the Crimson Network.

The soprano-less Singapiel features an original half-hour musical score composed by James Lawlor, '44, played by a small studio orchestra, which is integrated with the spoken lines to produce more effect of operatia than of soap opera with incidental music.
