In this episode of the podcast "Unwrap Your Candies Now," Ernie Manouse chats with longtime "Tonight Show" host, stand-up comedian, voiceover artist, author and speaker Jay Leno, known to many as "the hardest working man in show business." Society for the Performing Arts presents An Evening with Jay Leno on December 6 at Jones Hall.
Then, Catherine Lu interviews mezzo-soprano Cecilia Duarte and bass Daniel Noyola, two of the stars of Houston Grand Opera's World Premiere mariachi opera, El Milagro del Recuerdo (The Miracle of Remembering). Composed by Javier Martínez with libretto by Leonard Foglia, it’s only the third mariachi opera ever to be written. Set in Michoacán, Mexico in 1962 at Christmas, the story is a prequel to 2010's Cruzar la Cara de la Luna. Performances are December 5-22 at the Wortham Center.
