Mark Diamond to perform Borzoni world premiere

Mark Diamond

American barihunk Mark Diamond will join Musica Marin for the world premiere of Clint Borzoni's new arrangement of the aria, "Two Nooses" from his opera "When Adonis Calls” for baritone, viola, cello and piano. The New York-based Borzoni is the composer-in-residence for the California chamber music organization. Last year, they presented the world premiere of his two works for Baritone and String Quartet, Stufen and Magere Kost.

The program is a collaboration with San Francisco's Merola Opera Program, where Diamond was part a participant in 2011. He'll be joined by mezzo-soprano Laura Krumm, who was also in Merola in 2011 and accompanist Ronny Greenberg, who was in the program in 2014.

There will be additional song by Borzoni set to poets John Grimmett, Sally M. Gall, Gavin Geoffrey Dillard, and Judith G Wolf.


Musica Marin presents concerts in beautiful private homes and tickets include wine, hors d'oeuvres and mingling with the poets, composer and artists. Tickets are available at Eventbrite.
