From Folk Music To Opera

 

 

Music For Mankind® founder Kelly Moore, having  successfully created his new concert series, Give My Regards To Broadway, has accepted a role in the Opera Theatre of Weston's January 2011 production of Mozart's The Magic Flute.

Kelly will sing in the Select Chorus and also perform as a Temple "Slave".

Opera Theatre of Weston Co-Producer Lise Messier said about him, "A multi-talented performer, Kelly brings enormous enthusiasm, solid vocal skills, sensitive and honest interpretations, and a big heart to a wide-ranging repertoire. He is a gifted entertainer. His background in theater, dance, and singing are a perfect fit for this production."

"Having grown up in theatre, this is my first performance in opera," said Kelly, "and I'm very excited to be in this one. Mozart's music is so beautiful that it brings tears to your eyes. To start at this level is, for me, an incredible experience." 

"And," he added, "working with the OTW producers, directors and everyone involved is great. I'm really enjoying this and looking forward to the performances."

Performances will be as follows:

On Saturday January 8, starting at 3:00 PM, the performance will be held at the Paramount Theatre in Rutland.

On Saturday January 15, a 3:00 performance will be held at the Weston Playhouse, in Weston, Vermont, and then again on Sunday January 16, with the performance starting at 2:00 PM.

There will also be performances for local schools.
