Ever hear the expression “You’ve got to pay the piper?”  It comes from a very old story dating from the Middle Ages about a Piper in a pied (multi-colored) outfit who has a flute endowed with magical powers.  Belhaven Opera Arts is proud to produce another Seymour Barab operatic adaptation of the classic, The Pied Piper of Hamelin. American Seymour Barab (1921-)  received a Lifetime Achievement Award by the National Opera Association.  Kurt Vonnegut says: "Barab's music is full of magic. He proved to an atheist that God is real.
