LA Opera Talk: Barber of Seville November 15, 2009

Figaro! Figaro! Fi-ga-ro! LA Opera will present background information on the composer and the work itself in a FREE audio-visual presentation — something to really sing about! LA Opera’s programs always encourage questions and comments from the audience. Whether you’re a hardcore opera aficionado or a curious novice, you’ll be delightfully entertained and inspired to make a trip to the Los Angeles Music Center for the full production.
At the Music Center’s Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, LA Opera has assembled an all-star cast featuring two celebrated artists. The New York Times commented that the "dashing Peruvian tenor Juan Diego Flórez was a vocally brilliant and charming Count Almaviva...and the perky, rich-toned and vocally brilliant young American mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato had a triumph as Rosina." Principals include audience favorite Nathan Gunn as Figaro, who brings to the role "unmistakable star power" (Opera News).
Learn and experience the highlights of this effervescent comic opera in the comfort of the Barth Community Room.
