Mark your calendar for a special event! The Friends of the North End Library (FONEL) invite you to enjoy a FREE sneak preview of an opera produced by the NEMPAC Opera Project and the Boston Festival Orchestra.
In its thirteenth season, the NEMPAC Opera Project and the Boston Festival Orchestra present a thrilling production of Christophe Willibald Gluck's Italian Baroque opera, Orfeo ed Euridice. In a sneak-peek preview, community members in the North End will meet artists from the production, and enjoy a selection of songs and duets performed live from Gluck’s famous score.
The event includes an interactive presentation that explores queer representation in opera and the classics, and how the production design elements in our interpretation will create a beautiful and nostalgic 90’s era gay club scene where music and community heal all wounds.
Please join us. This is a not to be missed musical experience.
