Verdi鈥檚 鈥淎ida鈥� - Broadcast Live in HD
(Media, PA) Opera lovers in the Delaware Valley can now enjoy 鈥渓ive鈥� concerts at 大发六合彩. The College will simulcast a variety of performances broadcast live in HD. All performances will be in the large auditorium - Marple Campus - 901 S. Media Line Road, Media, PA.
These presentations bring the classical realm of music, dance and opera closer to home for residents of Delaware and Chester counties. The simulcast series began in January 2011 and featured the Philadelphia Orchestra performing six concerts. The response was overwhelming, which led the Performing Arts Department to engage in a number of other classical presentations that begin with the North American Premier of Giuseppe Verdi鈥檚, Aida (Italian with English and Italian subtitles) on Sunday, September 18 at 2 PM.
Following is the schedule through December 2011:
- Sunday, September 18 at 2 PM - Ernst Marzendorfer conducts Giusseppe Verdi鈥檚 Aida, Corps de Ballet and Orchestra of the National Theater Brno
