Opera at the Roger Williams Botanical Center – Turandot abridged

Tuesday, October 22nd, 6:00 PM – 7:30

at The RWP Botanical Center

Free & Open to All, space is limited, Doors Open at 5:30

 

Come out and join us for this family-friendly event, free and open to the public!  Presented by Coffee Milk Opera, in partnership with Roger Williams Park Conservancy, 

Think opera is not for you? Think again!  This is an evening of community gathering in a magical venue for a night of music and celebration! 

Coffee Milk Opera will present highlights from Puccini’s beloved Turandot, in concert for Opera in the Park at the RWP Botanical Center.  Rhode Island native Kate Norigian, soprano, will perform Princess Turandot, along with her brother, John Norigian, music director and pianist. Krista Wilhelmsen, resident of Cranston, RI will perform the role of Liu. Tenor Matthew Arnold, fellow New Englander, will perform what is considered the most famous opera aria in the world: “Nessun Dorma,” known for its high notes and ability to evoke emotion, making it a popular choice for contestants on Britain/America’s Got Talent on other TV commercials and shows.

Through the generous support of RISCA and the Roger Williams Park Conservancy, Coffee Milk Opera is able to produce Opera in the Park.

Free and open to the public, chairs are provided, space is limited,

Doors Open at 5:30
