"...for war is a drug..." I puritani, Vincenzo Bellini's ethereal opera, is a haunting reminder of the dangerous addiction to war and violence that can overcome a society. Through hypnotic melodies and lush orchestration, Bellini weaves a mysterious tale of war, madness, treachery and love. On July 11th and 12th 2015, come see this fantastic production--conducted by Joel Lish with the Palisades Symphony, and starring some of Los Angeles' finest up and coming opera singers!

Attention, opera friendlies: we really need to cast the two roles remaining in our I puritani production: Bruno (tenor) and Valton (bass/bass-baritone). They are comprimario parts, undeniably: but we are offering $50 for the two performances ($25 per night). Rehearsals begin in less than a month, and these roles are integral. If anyone is interested, or knows anyone who might be, please let us know. Contact us here either here or at [email protected]. Directly below is the content from our Lauri's List post, containing the rest of the information.

Orphée Arts, one of LA's newest opera companies, already known for its Gold Rush-era mounting of L'elisir D'amore, is currently preparing a fully-staged production of Bellini's I puritani, for performance this July. Two roles still need to be cast: BRUNO, (tenor, middle tessitura, range F3-G4), and VALTON, (bass or bass/baritone, low tessitura, range Ab2-Db4). The shows, July 11 and 12, in the Parish Hall at St. Alban's Episcopal Church in Westwood, will be accompanied by a full orchestra. Rehearsals will be Sunday and Wednesday nights, 7:30 to 9:30, starting Wednesday, May 13.
