Puget Sound Concert Opera: Opera Up Close And Affordable!
Posted April 17, 2013 at 5:35 am by Tim Dustrude
Puget Sound Concert Opera (PSCO) incorporates an innovative concert opera format, allowing audience members to see, hear and feel the music up close and affordable in intimate venues. This personal experience can be lost in the typical large, American opera houses, especially in combination with the distractions of scenery, staging and costuming. With PSCO’s popular concert opera format, audiences can see, hear and feel the performance as if they were on stage.
Béatrice et Bénédict
Based on the Shakespeare comedy Much Ado About Nothing, Béatrice et Bénédict is the tale of two young people who hide their attraction to one another by fighting incessantly. That is until all their friends conspire to trick them into marrying! A charming, funny story set to the gorgeous music of Hector Berlioz. Music will be sung in French with a narration in English. Our stellar cast includes Deborah Blakesley and Colin Ward in the title roles along with Courtney Ruckman, Amber Rose Johnson and Ryan Bede. Specially arranged and Conducted by Bernard Kwiram with a chamber ensemble and piano.
