The Opera Night: Iconic Songs of All Time
Opera is a dramatic story told through song. It is considered by many to be the most complete art form, combining all of the elements of art, words, music, drama and dance. The unique element in opera is the use of music to convey an entire story/plot. This is based on the feeling that music can communicate people’s reactions and emotions better than words or pictures.
Join us for a sophisticated night to enjoy the most famous opera arias from iconic movies. Internationally-recognized opera singers Corinne Metni (Soprano) and Eliane Saadeh (Mezzo-soprano) will bring you the best of what opera has to offer — from Puccini and Offenbach to Morricone and the Godfather hits. Guest Artists Klaudia Olborska-Szymańska (violin), Mariola Sokolowska (piano), Tala Tutunji (piano) will also showcase their immense talent.
