This afternoon I coordinated an outing for our home school families to a family opera at the Winspear Opera House. Dallas Operas Family Concert featured arias and overtures from The Barber of Seville, The Marriage of Figaro,and Carmen. The Dallas Opera's orchestra was led by Maestro Anthony Barrese, and joined by a Mezzo-Soprano and lead Baritone. Before the concert there were crafts and activities for kids. The activities were really geared towards Elementary age children, but the concert itself was for more Middle School age children.
I was hoping for the performance with images from Gilligan's Island with Skipper singing Hamlet to the music from the Marriage of Figaro, or cartoon videos from Bugs Bunny etc. But I'm sure there are copy write laws etc.
From the fruit of their lips people are filled with good things,
and the work of their hands brings them reward.
and the work of their hands brings them reward.
Proverbs 12:14
