On the Net: Keiko: http://www One of his handlers, Dale Richards, also said Keiko died quickly htm The project â€â€? to reintegrate Keiko with a pod of wild killer whales â€â€? cost millions of dollars and stirred interest and ire worldwide " Keiko â€â€? which means "Lucky One" in Japanese â€â€? was captured in Iceland in 1979 and sold to the marine park industry "They really do die quickly and there was nothing we could do," said he said org/keiko/index Keiko's keepers said the whale seemed to adapt to living in the wild despite so many years in captivity, learning to slap his tail and do jumps called side breaches that are typically done to stun fish He was old for an orca in captivity, though wild orca live an average of 35 years The whale, who was 27, died Friday afternoon after the sudden onset of pneumonia in Taknes Bay, 370 miles northwest of the capital, Oslo he wasn't doing too well," Richards told The Associated Press Starting in 1993, the six-ton mammal starred in three "Free Willy" movies, a heartwarming box-office franchise from Warner Brothers in which sympathetic humans help set a long-captive killer whale free Nick Braden, a spokesman of the Humane Society of the United States, said veterinarians gave Keiko antibiotics after he showed signs of lethargy Thursday, but it wasn't apparent how sick he was Killer Whale Keiko Dies of Pneumonia Dec 13, 4:32 AM EST Keiko, the killer whale made famous by the "Free Willy" movies, has died in the Norwegian fjord that he made his home after a multimillion dollar campaign failed to coax him back to the open seas Keiko was rehabilitated at the Oregon Coast Aquarium, then airlifted to Iceland in 1998 Keiko was later led to Taknes Bay, a clear, calm pocket of coastal water deep enough that it doesn't freeze in winter His handlers there prepared him for the wild, teaching him to catch live fish Keepers fed him there, but he was free to roam and did, often at night He first turned up near the village of Halsa in late August or early September of 2002 " "Gabriel's Daughter" was premiering Saturday with mezzo-soprano Lori Brown Mirabal as Aunt Clara She likes to think of Brown as the Oprah Winfrey of her day; Winfrey awarded Mirabal a scholarship to attend the Manhattan School of Music She became a legend at a time when gold and silver mining led Central City to label itself "the richest square mile on Earth There was only one problem with the opera: "I thought, `This won't work Brown had the equivalent of a state funeral in 1885 after she died in poverty in Denver, 35 miles east of Central City Opera premieres are nothing new for Shelton, who has done several at the Houston Grand Opera Opera Jul 11, 9:09 PM EST The Central City Opera has done well sticking close to home " â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: The Central City Opera Web site: http://www Now comes "Gabriel's Daughter," the story of former slave Clara Brown She then used nearly all of her money to bring freed slaves out West, nurse the ill and support churches William Luce, a Tony winner for "The Belle of Amherst," wrote the libretto Brown amassed a small fortune by investing her earnings â€â€? from pounding laundry clean in a tub â€â€? in mines and property The full story would also have to include references to the racial insults Brown suffered on the streets of Central City and the theft of property and mining claims by whites The music is eclectic, including everything from gospel to patriotic marches, and brings to mind a Broadway musical, Mirabal said Yet he admits being pleased that his name will be listed on all future editions of the score as the first person to sing the Chivington role: "It's like being at a birth " Enter John Chivington, a Civil War colonel known to history as "the butcher of Sand Creek" for massacring more than 150 Indians in 1864 But you will also see anger, despair and her humorous side," Mirabal said There was never any question she was a worthy subject "Opera needs a villain This woman is too good The company commissioned and premiered "The Ballad of Baby Doe" in 1956 and "The Face on the Barroom Floor" in 1978, both based on local stories and still widely performed nationwide She doesn't have any flaws at all,'" Moriarity said John Moriarity, Central City artistic director emeritus, began looking for a new opera theme several years ago Ex-Slave's Story Told in New Colo "You will see her as an ex-slave, a martyr She has worked on her diction, and will concentrate on not making her character too grand The title comes from Aunt Clara praying to the angel Gabriel for help finding her daughter, Eliza Jane, whom she hasn't seen since they were separated at a slave auction 50 years earlier Mirabal, a black Southerner, was thrilled both to be singing for the first time in a major opera premiere and telling Brown's story The opera can only scratch the surface of Brown's life At one point during the opera, tenor Chad Shelton as Chivington sings of hatred for Indians while Mirabal's Clara sings about love org Bass-baritone Alfred Walker's Barney Ford, a successful black businessman and friend of Brown's, sings of his hope that everything will work out centralcityopera He settled on Brown after considering other regional legends, including Buffalo Bill Cody "If we put in everything we knew about her good works it would be longer than Wagner's `Ring' cycle," Moriarity said The music is by Henry Mollicone, who wrote "The Face on the Barroom Floor" for the opera's 100th anniversary Rehearsals suggested bits of Kurt Weill's "Lost in the Stars" or "The Tenderland" by Aaron Copland |
