The 2009-10 Colorado Symphony Orchestra season includes two performances (Jan 15, 17) of Lieberson's "Neruda Songs" by mezzo Kelly O'Connor. I have not heard her sing, but the CSO's program notes claim, "...Peter Lieberson chose O'Connor as his wife's successor in performing this work." I'm already looking forward to this concert.
