[edit] Removed Copyright violations

The original article was mostly a press release from the Chicago Lyric Opera (especially the last page of the PDF). I removed it in acccordance with Wikipedia's Copyright Policy. It's good information, but beyond fair use since it forms most of the Wikipedia article and does not have a transformative or commentative use. Scarpia 13:14, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Permission to use the contents of the above-referenced document (Lyric Opera of Chicago press release) was granted by authors, Lyric Opera Media Services by email dated 27 June 2006. Orbicle 08:58, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

To post something on Wikipedia, you need not only the permission to use, but the permission to modify and distribute under the various licenses Wikipedia uses. That's a pain and it's easier to to create original writing with the same information. Scarpia 17:56, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
