apero a l'opera

apero a l'opera (i've left the
accents off, on purpose).
This is an "opera documentary".
Here's a quote from the Opera Montreal
site:

"Apéro à l'opéra

The Opéra’s all-new outreach project!

Follow along as 6 amateur singers

undergo a metamorphosis and realize

their dream of becoming opera singers!"


click here to see the site for the show (& they have
a blog of course) to learn more and
to hear samples.

oooh! this documentary
will be on tv (artv) starting
January 26. Oooh - that's tonight.
I can't wait to see it.
