“Noah has been instrumental to the organizational change we have seen at Project Implicit. From process improvement to operations and finance to board development, he has been my trusty co-pilot and collaborator for over two years. In addition to being an exceptional nonprofit consultant, he is a delightfully warm and thoughtful person who can give one heck of a pep talk when you're feeling anxious or overwhelmed. I am inspired by and grateful for the open, thoughtful feedback he provides every single time we meet, and I know that I'm a better leader because of it.”

NYMAN, M.: Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat (The) [Chamber Opera] (Treviño, Sjöwall, MacPherson, Nashville Opera Orchestra, D. Williamson)
Michael Nyman’s one-act chamber opera The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat takes as its subject Dr P, a man suffering from visual agnosia, or ‘mental blindness’, and is adapted from the neurological study in the book of the same name by Oliver Sacks. For Nyman, Dr P ‘requires music as a lifeline, cue, clue, cure’, living as he does in a world lacking visual meaning. It is through his musical gifts that Dr P reclaims meaning from chaos, Nyman’s tautly conceived masterpiece providing a perfect medium through which the moving drama can be explored. -
