Info:
Continuing its trailblazing tradition of presenting new and less familiar works of music theatre, Opera Parallele will give the world premiere of an opera based on author Catherine Friend's beloved children's book, My Head is Full of Colors, Saturday, November 1, at 11 am in the Koret Auditorium of the San Francisco Main Library, 100 Larkin Street. Written by Santa Cruz composer Chris Pratorius with libretto by Opera Parallele Artistic Director Nicole Paiement, the work is the first commission premiered by the Company and is being performed during National Opera Week (October 24-November 2). The production will feature 4th grade students from Creative Arts Charter School performing with soprano Carolyn Bacon and baritone Sergey Khalikulov. Laura Anderson is the stage director, costumes are designed by Elly Jessop the singers and small instrumental ensemble will be conducted by OP Intern Conductor William Long.
Admission is free of charge and general admission. Opera Parallele's past presentations of opera for families have been extremely popular, so audience members are encouraged to arrive early for this one-performance-only, first-come, first-served event. For information, visit www.operaparallele.org.
