Brownbag Concert: Afternoon at the Opera (Livestream)
Wednesday, April 17, 2024, 12:00 PM
Our season closes with a varied series of five vocal and instrumental chamber programs.
The series begins with soprano Val Sibila and mezzo-soprano Kira McGirr in a concert of opera arias and duets. From the sweetest Monteverdi and Menotti to some spicier Rossini and Bizet, these selections will have a little something for every palate.
