Falling In Love

A concert for Valentine’s Day

This concert features some of the greatest love-moments in opera and musical theatre – the rhapsodic love theme from Tchaikovsky’s ‘Romeo and Juliet’; the passionate ‘Habanera’ from George Bizet’s ‘Carmen’; the love-bombing duet from Puccini’s ‘La Boheme’. Plus we have favourites from musical theatre – the unforgettable songs of Gershwin, Rogers and Hart, Cole Porter and Leonard Bernstein.

There’s also fun and froth galore in Donizetti’s ‘Elixir of Love’ – a world of True Romance comics. The fun continues with the Catalogue Song from Mozart’s ‘Don Giovanni’ as a servant runs through a list of his master’s conquests as long as your arm.

It’s music to fall in love with.

Love And Conflict – St. Margaret's Church, Swinton

Saturday, 29th November 2014 – 7:30pm

They are some of opera’s biggest wish pieces, the ones that rend your your heart : the brooding, blistering choruses of a threatened people in Verdi’s ‘Nabucco’; the birth of love and its attendant seeds of destruction in the Love Duet from Puccini’s ‘La Boheme’; the crackling tensions of the quartet from Verdi’s Rigoletto’; the transcendent beauty of reconciliation in the Finale of Mozart’s ‘Marriage of Figaro’.

Strong characters, driving drama, it’s music to die for…
Tickets: £10 per person
