Soprano Corinne WintersLike many of my colleagues, I’ve been laid low by a spring cold but in an effort to play catch-up I’ll try and give a run-down on and up and coming event, Opera Lite, produced by Annapolis Opera.
As I wrote last week, the opera’s production of Tosca was great but that’s in the past and if you missed it or if you loved it and and are looking for more–consider their upcoming production Opera Lite a mid afternoon event on Sunday April 18th at Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts.
Soprano Corinne Winters, Lyric Coloratura Soprano Megan Monaghan, Baritone Daniel Collins, Mezzo soprano Erika Person, tenor Michael Gallant and bass-baritone Stephanos Tsirakoglou are the six professional performers who will be singing trios, duets, and solos from popular operas accomplied by pianist Ronald J. Gretz. The repetoire will include Champagne from Die Fledermaus by Johann Strauss, Three Little Maids, from GIlbert and Sullivan’s Mikado, and Strings are Sighing from Franz Lehar’s Merry Widow.
