Lyric Opera of Kansas City "Flash Toreador" at The City Market (Sept 4, 2010)

On Saturday, September 4, 2010, the Lyric Opera of Kansas City teamed up with The City Market - Kansas City for a large-scale "Flash Opera" event! A bass baritone apprentice with the Company and members of the Lyric Opera Chorus performed the famed "Toreador Song" in the open air City Market, entertaining hundreds of Kansas Citians during the annual Pepper Party, and proving that the perfect accompaniment for roasted peppers is a little spicy opera! The Lyric Opera sincerely thanks members of the chorus for generously volunteering their time and talents... BRAVI TUTTI!! CARMEN runs from Sept 25 to Oct 4, 2010. For tickets, 816-471-7344 or www.kcopera.org

Amazing!....I like OPERA!

But, in closed places the sound is better!

One singer - even one trained opera singer - is going to have a hard time singing over the crowd noises at an outdoor market. It sounded much better when the chorus joined in.

But the whole point is to take something normally reserved for the concert hall or theater into the community.

Should have had better musical background. Couldn't hardly hear it on the video.

Well, maybe it sounded better if you were there in person.
