Opera Night at the Boston Public Library: Beauty + Power in the Human Voice | Events | Boston Public Library (bibliocommons.com)
Have you ever wondered how classically trained singers create such powerful, beautiful, and emotionally rich sounds – all without amplification? Join Boston Lyric Opera artists for an inspiring, informative, and interactive concert that explores how opera has revolutionized vocal and compositional techniques throughout history. Journey through centuries of soundscapes as artists demonstrate their virtuosic singing abilities and share insights about their training and the historical origins of the bel canto (“beautiful singing”) style. The evening will include live performance, engaging commentary, and an audience Q&A.
This event welcomes all audiences – no past experience with opera is necessary! Playbills with texts and English translations will be provided.
Opera Night at the Boston Public Library is a legacy community partnership between Boston Lyric Opera and the Boston Public Library, offering equitable access to quality opera learning experiences for over 25 years.
