Mexican themes flavor bilingual opera in Denver, Colorado

“Composer Robert Xavier Rodriguez admits that when he began writing operas, creating a children’s work titled “Monkey See, Monkey Do” was not exactly his burning ambition.

Yet like it or not, the bilingual piece has been performed thousands of times across North America - far more frequently than his two well-regarded, full-length operas.

“I’ve found it enormously gratifying to write music for children,” he said. “Children’s audiences are extremely demonstrative and they let you know up front if they are having a good time, and if they love it, they really love it.”"
