Do you remember back when real live musicians used to perform for a real live audience?  Well some mad dudes are trying to revive it.  Tapestry Opera have some shows in conjunction with Canadian Stage coming up in High Park.  July 10th, 11th, 17th and 18th you can catch the show “Box Concerts” that Tapestry have been taking around health care facilities and offering for private booking.  It’s PWYC.  Booking is via Canadian Stage.  Also on the 17th at 3pm there’s an extended program including excerpts from Rocking Horse Winner where Asitha Tennekoon will be joined by Midori Marsh and Lucia Cesaroni.  That’s $50 booked at the same page.

Meanwhile back in the new normal there’s a hilarious new HBD! on Natalya Gennadi’s Youtube channel.  Ever wanted to see Greg Finney as a Valkyrie?  No neither did I but here’s your chance.  Plus much more.  Brilliant visuals as ever.  There’s also a new Opera Breaks on the Domoney Artists channel featuring Cait Wood in a number from Sweeney Todd.
