{"value"=>"<p>Not all titles listed in this sub-series were produced, or produced with Levine's participation. Some files consist only of correspondence or a script which was sent to Levine for her review or approval, and may contain her notes. In the case of 1776, she was fired from the production.</p> <p>Because Levine played a vital creative role in their production, the three titles with the most content in the collection are X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X, Lizzie Borden and Of Mice and Men. The files for X contain correspondence with Anthony Davis and document the creation and development of the opera from its workshop at the American Music Theater Festival through its premier at the New York City Opera.</p> <p>Other titles with multiple productions and/or substantial content include The Barber of Seville, A Death in the Family, Falstaff, La Fille de Madame Angot, From the House of the Dead, Lucia di Lammermoor, Lulu, Man of La Mancha, The Marriage of Figaro, Mathis der Maler, Orfeo ed Euridice, Porgy and Bess, The Rape of Lucretia, Rigoletto, Susannah and La Tragedia de Carmen.</p> <p>Levine herself was one of the creators for three of the titles: Children's Play for Wind Quintet, Op. Zoo, for which she wrote the words for Luciano Berio's music; Just So Stories, a theatrical adaptation of stories by Rudyard Kipling; and The Thirteen Clocks, with music by Robert Chauls.</p> <p>One title, The Letter, is a compilation of scenes from operas by Verdi, Puccini, Susa, Pasatieri and Bizet, presented at the Curtis Institute of Music.</p> <p>Two of the titles were gala ceremonies directed by Levine: The Dream of Generations honored the fortieth anniversary of the State of Israel, and The Harvey Gala, a benefit for the Brooklyn Academy of Music, feted BAM founder Harvey Lichtenstein.</p>"}
