Note from Opera in the Pines:

Opera in the Pines presents A Masked Ball, an immersive reimagining of Giuseppe Verdi’s thrilling masterpiece Un Ballo in Maschera, set within the storied walls of the historic Maine State Building in Poland, Maine. Reframed in 1895, the year the building was dedicated in its new Maine home, this production transforms the landmark into the lavish residence of the Governor of Boston, where guests gather for an opulent evening steeped in intrigue, romance, and fate.

As our audience members arrive as invited guests to the ball, the drama is already unfolding all around them. Characters mingle through the rooms, secrets simmer beneath elegant disguises, and Verdi’s soaring music animates the building’s architecture and natural acoustics. Filtered through a distinctly New England lens, A Masked Ball invites audiences to step inside history, don a mask, and witness a timeless story of love, loyalty, and betrayal.

I will be returning to Peterborough, New Hampshire, in the beautiful Monadnock Valley, the neighboring town to my alma mater, Keene State College, for an afternoon of cherished choral works. I will be joining the Monadnock Chorus, led by Sandra Howard, as a featured soloist in the following works:

• Regina coeli, KV276 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

• Five Mystical Songs Ralph Vaughan Williams

• Liebeslieder Waltzer, Op. 52 Johannes Brahms

•  Sacred Place, Alex Berko

I couldn’t be happier to be back home joining this beloved group, formerly led by my late mentor, Carroll Lehman, and now led by one of the guiding lights that got me on the path of becoming a vocalist, Dr. Sandra Howard.

Peterborough, NH is a charming town nestled in the Monadnock Valley, and was one of the inspirations for Grover’s Corners, NH from Thornton Wilder’s Our Town. Filled with fun shops, restaurants, and idyllic views, I can think of no better place to bring your Mother, Mother-in-law, spouse this Mother’s Day weekend. Please stay tuned for more information on tickets at:
