We invite you to join us for I Cantori’s Opera under the Stars featuring famous and lesser-known opera choruses, scenes and arias. Be transported to faraway places; Sevilla in Bizet’s Carmen, the Scottish Highlands in Verdi’s Macbeth or Nagasaki in Puccini’s Madama Butterfly. Pack a picnic and blanket and bundle up under the stars at the legendary outdoor Forest Theater in Carmel while listening to the magic of opera. The program features I Cantori’s symphonic chorus and orchestra directed by Daniel Henriks, operatic power couple Sandra and Christopher Bengochea and Mezzo-Soprano Kelly Guerra.
This open-air concert is perfect if you are new to the transformative power of opera. You will recognize melodies that are part of pop culture and have been heard in Hollywood movies. I Cantori is proud to collaborate with amazing players and opera singers, both local and from the greater Bay Area to share in this magical performance.
(Doors open 6:00 pm)
You are welcome to bring a picnic. Pack some delicious snacks, wine and some blankets to stay warm in case the fog rolls in. No time for picnic prepping? Treat yourself, or someone you love, to a concert ticket and upgrade! We are excited to be partnering with Chic Charcuterie to offer special treats. Only available if you pre-order! The concession stand will have other delicacies for you before the show and during intermission.
