Puccini At Home

A salon concert in your home of eleven rarely performed Songs for Voice and Piano by Puccini and an aria or three. 
 
Interested in a performance?  It’s easy.  Gather the people in your immediate social circle, and we’ll come to your home to perform.  All you need is a space that’s large enough to keep 2 meters between the performers and the audience and preferably a tuned piano.  (And let's be honest,  you want at least two meters between you and live opera.)
 
Details:

• If you’re interested in a performance, we’ll run through the COVID-19 precautions we are putting in place for these performances.
• The cost is $30 per person and ALL of the proceeds will go toward the next FNO mainstage production.

Ready for live music again?  Get in touch today to book or for more details: FearNoOpera@shaw.ca / 250 880-9156.
