Love, conflict, deceit, tragedy, forgiveness and redemption. This is opera! Soprano Maria Natale and baritone Joseph Lodato performed opera selections that represent "love, death and redemption," three common themes in opera. We heard the music of Puccini, Verdi, Leoncavallo and Mascagni, and similarly themed selections composed for musical theater.

The singers were accompanied by Artistic Director, Mary Pinto. Narration was provided by Mariana Karpatova.
