September 28th is shaping up as a bit daft from a scheduling point of view.  I’ll be at the opening of Turandot at the COC but there are at least two other options.  Confluence have a celebration of Clara Schumann at St. Thomas’ Church on Huron Street at 8pm.  It features pianists Angela Park and Christopher Bagan, soprano Patricia O’Callaghan, actor Alison Beckwith, and violinist Ellie Sievers.  The same day at 4pm Toronto Operetta Theatre have their season opener; Viva la Zarzuela.  It’s at the St. Lawrence Centre and features tenor Rómulo Delgado.  I guess one could just about do that and one of the evening shows.
