Adriana Lecouvreur by Cilea!
Friday, September 22nd - Tuesday, September 26th
A love triangle between the French actress Adriana Lecouvreur, the Princess de Bouillon and Maurizio, the Count of Saxony. This opera contains everything you might desire from a plot, including the real-life romance between Adriana (soprano Kathleen Morrison) and Maurizio (tenor Ernesto Ramirez), her rivalry with Princess de Bouillon (mezzo-soprano Barbara King (YYC) & Alicia Woynarski (Airdrie)), and her unexpected and mysterious death. Love, infidelity, murder, and glorious music…it doesn’t get more “opera-plot” than that!
Sept 22nd: Airdrie Lutheran Church of the Master
Sept 24th: Okotoks Alliance Church
Sept 26th: Jack Singer Lobby
A dynamic cast from Calgary and Toronto joins forces with Calgary Concert Opera and Opera by Request. You will get up close and personal with the cast in the lobby of the stunning Arts Commons Jack Singer Concert Hall, in Airdrie at the Lutheran Church of the Master and at the Okotoks Alliance Chruch with this semi-staged opera in concert presentation.
