Livermore Valley Opera is again offering an operatic extravaganza with a series of free online concerts on LVOpera Channel on YouTube.
“Triple Treat 2021” will feature professional opera singers performing in three concerts premiering Saturdays, March 13, April 10 and May 8. All concerts begin at 6 p.m., accompanied by Livermore Valley Opera music director Alexander Katsman, with English subtitles provided.
Following each premiere, the concerts will be available on demand on the LVOpera Channel at www.youtube.com so patrons can watch each any time.
Three Livermore wineries are offering special wine pairings to complement each of the concerts at home, as follows:
* March 13: “‘Tosca’ Plus” concert will include arias from “Tosca” and other songs performed by four of the principal artists who were to perform in the March production, soprano Ann Toomey, tenor Alex Boyer, baritone Morgan Smith, and lyric tenor Joseph Frank.
“Tosca” is set in Rome in a setting of rolling hills, olive trees and grapevines, and the 2017 John Evan Cellars Le Corbeau, a 100% Merlot, was chosen as the perfect accompaniment to these dramatic and passionate arias. Stop by the winery and mention Livermore Valley Opera to receive 25% off a purchase of Le Corbeau through March.
* April 10: “Spring Sing” will celebrate life and love with Soprano Elena Galván and her husband tenor Daniel Bates, and bass-baritone, Philip Skinner.
Omega Road Winery has paired the concert with its Spanish-style Red Blend #8, an enticing blend of Tempranillo and Graciano. Stop by the tasting room or use the online LVOPERA discount code for 15% off this wine for the month of April.
* May 8: “Celebrating Mother’s Day” with soprano Kristin Clayton and her husband bass-baritone Bojan Kneževic. Occasio Winery will offer a Mother’s Day surprise pairing and discount. Check the opera website for updates.
Although the Triple Treat virtual opera concerts are free, donations are always welcome. Learn more at www.livermorevalleyopera.com.
