Based on the play The Little Foxes by Lillian Hellman, Regina holds special note for Utahans as it premiered on Broadway in 1949 with conductor Maurice Abravanel. Set in the Deep South in the year 1900, this distinctively American opera chronicles the demise of a wealthy southern family torn apart by greed. Regina Giddens schemes and double-crosses until she is left with only her wealth and loneliness. Though Blitzstein's work is little-known today, it has been said that in his era, no one surpassed his genius for setting American words to American music. In Regina, Blitzstein adeptly blends operatic lyricism, spirituals, ragtime, blues and Dixieland.
