The opera version of Smashing Pumpkins' Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness had its debut with performances Friday and Saturday night at the Civic Opera House in Chicago. And while Billy Corgan was listed as a star attraction at A Night of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness staged by the Lyric Opera, he only sang on four of the night's 19 songs -- "Thirty-Three," "1979," "To Forgive" and a second version of "Tonight Tonight" that closed both evenings. (The original 1995 album has 28 songs.) The rest of the songs were sung by actual opera vocalists -- Sydney Mancasola (soprano), Zoie Reams (mezzo-soprano), Dominick Valdés Chenes (tenor), and Edward Parks (baritone). Corgan posted on his Instagram account, "I can't tell you how great these singers are besides me and in the choir. I am truly blessed to sing with them." The Mellon Collie opera has five performances left -- Tuesday through next Sunday, with a day off for Thanksgiving.
