I am a recently retired lecturer in music-theatre (everything from Grand Opera to Ragtime pieces) and have myself written several libretti. The latest is for an Offenbach-like treatment of the play ‘Kind Hearts and Coronets’ for which I have written the book and lyrics. No composer, alas, I had one of great melodic gift but he died at the age of under 40 – a great loss to his family and to music. I am now writing ‘The Tube Train Murders’, another comedy libretto and revising one I wrote pitching Miss Marple against Hercule Poirot. If you know of any interested composers, i’d be glad to hear from them (I live in the Scottish Highlands).Keep up the good work!
