Read and Sing Opera!

August 20, 2015 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

It’s a new perspective on storytelling that is exciting and intriguing for all ages.

Watch as a professional opera singer gives a new perspective on reading as Minnesota Opera presents an innovative program bridging traditional storytelling and music. In READ AND SING OPERA, a Teaching Artist will use songs and tools from operatic and classical singing to enhance, inspire and help children engage in reading. Children will see a book come to life with excerpts of arias and animated characterizations throughout the reading, as well as be invited to sing along to parts of the book. A craft project will conclude the story hour.

Books for Northfield Library:
Westward Ho, Carlotta by Candice Flemming
Opera Cat by Tess Weaver

This special program is made possible by the Friends and Foundation of the Library.
