Seventeen Voyces is presenting a world premiere, ‘a comic opera’ by choir director Kevin Reeves on Friday May 31 and Saturday June 1 at 7:30 pm at Glebe St. James United Church at 650 Lyon Street South. Tickets on line: www.seventeenvoyces.ca

Seventeen Voyces’ 2018-2019 season began with horror and will end with horror – or more accurately – comedy horror. This is an original chamber opera based on “behind the scenes “incidents from “Nosferatu”- the silent classic from 1922. Kevin Reeves told us “I wrote this opera with the size and personalities of Seventeen Voyces in mind” along with the featured artists tenor, Corey Arnold, baritone, Luc Lalonde, soprano, Rachael Jewell, tenor, Grayson Nesbitt, and soprano, Kathleen Radke. It promises to be great fun with superb soloists, chorus and instrumentalists including a string quartet, clarinet and harpsichord. Be sure you have your tickets.
