Description
Composer's Note:
Tomorrow's Memories: A Little Manila Diary, is a choral-opera for the San Francisco Girls Chorus and takes its name from the published diary of Filipina-American Angeles Monrayo (1924-1928). My approach to the libretto was to select threads from Angeles's eloquent personal reflections and anecdotes to weave a young woman's coming-of-age story and tale of immigration to the US from the Philippines during the American-Philippine Colonial Era.
