Apr-4-2013 | Dear Friends,
Tonight in Rome, Italy I had the pleasure to sing Samson for the Final Dress Rehearsal, or "Generale", for Saint-Saëns' great opera "Samson et Dalila" at the Teatro dell'Opera, with maestro Charles Dutoit conducting. Do you think my hair is long enough?

Mar-17-2013 | This opera, based on John Steinbeck's moving and poignant novel, is one of dark edges and deep emotions. The music conveys those feelings.... Suddenly, you're listening to what seems like clashing voices that somehow combine into glorious sounds that fit perfectly together and suit the emotions of the moment. |
|
|
Mar-15-2013 | Both men speak in a manner that is very thoughtful, but not quite contemplative. In fact, it almost seems as if they’re venting. Hendrick breathes deeply and exhales slowly: “What’s amazing to me about this story is that we live in a day where our phones have become everything … and now articles are coming out about how people tend to be always in their own screens, not interacting with other people, and that creates a bit of a sense of loneliness. Here we are in the 21st century, but yet we have these little devices and we can we look up anything in the world we want to look up, but so often we are caught up in that insular world of our devices and we are sitting right next to people, and we don’t even get to know our own neighbors. To me, this story is really about wanting to connect with someone and to live your life with someone who will take care of you. It’s a universal human principle.” |
|
|
Mar-3-2013 | Hendrick said the music is highly approachable. “I think people will feel drawn to it musically. I have never heard of anyone who is turned off to this piece. This is a true American opera and I think they will feel so naturally inclined to it because of the universality of some of these things, having a purpose in life, wanting to be with someone you can share your life with.” |

Sep-1-2011 | Warshauer: "The soloists- Jennifer Hines, Stephanie Gregory, Michael Hendrick, and narrator Carol Potter-were all wonderful and really communicated the depth of the music and text.
"Michael Hendrick and I were talking about how to make the ending of Shacharit special; I said I hoped people, when hearing the end-'Oseh Shalom' (Grant Peace)-would love the feeling of peace in the music so much that they would want to keep it always." |

Mar-1-2010 | I grew up hearing Jon Vickers do the role, so my standards are impossibly high, and Jon Vickers in his 80s is living a happy retirement in Bermuda. But bing-o, tenor Michael Hendrick is en route to save the show. He gets off a plane at 9 pm on March 8 while the first dress rehearsal is going on, comes in to Mershon auditorium with his coat on and luggage in hand, gets on stage and sings- and sings- WOW!
Mind you, the guy barely had time to take off his coat. Thank you, Michael Hendrick! |

Oct-28-2009 | At the end of the scene, safe for the time being, Lennie asks George to tell him the story again.
"Someday," sings George, "we're gonna get the jack together and we're going to have a little house and a couple of acres an' a cow and some pigs an'... "
"An' live off the fatta the land!," shouts Lennie. "An' have rabbits." |

Oct-18-2009 | "It's very close to the earth to me" Hendrick, who lives in Baton Rouge, La., said of Steinbeck's narrative landscape in "Of Mice and Men." Indeed, "a lot of times the power of it is not in the big emotional moments, but where nothing is going on except the two of them in the middle of the forest." |
|
|
Oct-11-2009 | One way to make opera less intimidating is to connect it to things ordinary people know- such as books. So when Kentucky Opera decided to produce Carlisle Floyd's "Of Mice and Men," the company chose to precede the actual performances with a series of "Opera Bound" events tying into John Steinbeck's celebrated 1937 novella. |
