William & Mary students are already raving about Medici TV! Students recently watched the live premier of Charles Wuorinen’s new opera Brokeback Mountain from the Teatro Real Madrid. While they were watching, they were able to engage in and follow live commentary on Twitter from other important living composers like Nico Muhly. The live tweets even led them to a preview version of the score posted by the publisher, Edition Peters, online at issu.com.
