In its program to enhance holiday offerings, the Houston Grand Opera approached Gordon with the idea of creating an operatic version of the enchanting TV-movie-turned-novel, The House Without a Christmas Tree. The central story of personal loss struck a chord with both Gordon and librettist Vavrek, as each has suffered the loss of family members and, in Gordon's case, partner. The final theme of rebirth is one of catharsis and joy, and the resulting opera was especially welcome in a city that had just experienced the devastation of Hurricane Harvey. We are pleased to present the piano-vocal score, and performance materials are available on rental.
