Do you sound fabulous in the shower?? Have you ever wanted to hit those high notes in front of a friendly audience? Now is your chance!
Whether your ‘Nessun Dorma’ rivals the Three Tenors or your ‘O mio babbino caro’ makes us weep, we can’t wait to hear you! Do you want to play a favorite opera aria on an instrument? That’s fine, too. (We’ve heard rumors of a Queen of the Night aria played by a trombonist, and we can only dream of such wonders!)
Here’s how it works: Opera is a team sport! Your teammate for the evening will be the extraordinary collaborative pianist Bill Munson. To make sure Bill has your music ready to go, please send us an email at info@loonopera.org, telling us your name and the piece you would like to sing or play. We’ll follow up to confirm that we’re all on the same page. Then you show up and DAZZLE the audience!
