SUMMARY:HOTEL CALIFORNIA: The Original Eagles Tribute - SOLD OUT

It’s been a journey they could never have imagined back in 1986\, but their dedication\, unique musical gifts\, and an obsessive commitment to doing this legendary music true justice in performance\, set them apart from the many Eagles bands that came after them. Hotel California toured relentlessly from the 80’s straight through to today\, setting the standard for world-class tribute productions as they went\, and sharing stages with the likes of The Doobie Bros.\, Lynyrd Skynyrd\, Gretchen Wilson\, REO Speedwagon\, and many more. \nFeaturing original members within their strongest lineup to date\, the band is enjoying what they do today more than ever – and it sure sounds like it! It won’t take you long to hear why legions of Eagles fans come back to see them time after time\, and the top venues & festivals have them back again and again. The easy-going warmth that comes from the band onstage exemplifies the Southern California sound of the 1970’s. The experience of a Hotel California show isn’t just about the band – it’s about celebrating the music and the memories\, and the band gets the audiences involved and on their feet! \n  \n\n

Cash’s legacy will be celebrated in stories and songs exploring how important that concert was to him. \nThe album recorded there reached No. 1 both on the country and pop charts. The incredible tale of what happened before\, during and after that famous performance is brought back to life in the live show “Folsom Prison Revisited”. Featuring Devon Brayne from “Million Dollar Quartet’ and a group of award-winning musicians\, you will be taken on a musical journey through that legendary concert with gripping stories\, iconic music\, and multimedia. You will hear songs including “Folsom Prison Blues”\, “I Still Miss Someone” and “Jackson” plus seldomly performed songs by Cash including “25 Minutes to Go” and the heart wrenching “Greystone Chapel\, written by a Folsom Prison inmate. You’ll also hear Cash’s biggest hits such as “Ring of Fire”\, “Boy Named Sue” and “Hurt”.  \nIn Folsom Prison Revisited you will get to relive a show that changed the life of Johnny Cash and changed music forever. \n  \n\n

The musicians who have come together to celebrate The Legacy of Lightfoot combine their decades of experience as performers and songwriters to give a meaningful and engaging performance of his enduring catalogue of music. From his days playing the coffee houses in the 1960’s to the mega hits of the 70’s and all the way up to the beautiful music written in his later years\, The Legacy of Lightfoot shines a light on the entirety of Gordon’s masterful career. \nOliver Swain & Dylan Stone are two of British Columbia’s greatly accomplished and experienced songwriters & performers. Following the graceful passing of Gordon Lightfoot in May 2023 musicians Swain & Stone surrounded themselves with a talented cast of supporting musicians and collaborated to organize a concert to celebrate Gordon’s life and music. They found an over whelming response to their show and formed The Legacy Of Lightfoot. Together they share numerous accolades including award wins and nominations at the Juno’s\, Western Canadian Music Awards and Canadian Folk Music Awards. What started as a humble celebration of Lightfoot’s music has now been elevated to a theatre production that is connecting to large audiences and giving the spirit and legacy of Lightfoot’s music a new life & longevity. \nPhoto by O.

SUMMARY:The Met Opera: FLORENCIA & THE AMAZONS
DESCRIPTION:Senior $32 \n\n\n\n\nSpend your Tuesday mornings enjoying award-winning performances from the Metropolitan Opera\, broadcast in HD from New York City. \n\nSung in Spanish and inspired by the magical realism of Gabriel García Márquez\, Mexican composer Daniel Catán’s 1996 opera tells the enchanting story of a Brazilian opera diva who returns to her homeland to perform at the legendary opera house of Manaus—and to search for her lost lover\, who has vanished into the jungle. The Met premiere stars soprano Ailyn Pérez as Florencia Grimaldi\, with Yannick Nézet-Séguin on the podium to lead a spellbinding new production by Mary Zimmerman that brings the mysterious and magical realm of the Amazon to the Met stage. A distinguished ensemble of artists portray the diva’s fellow travelers on the river boat to Manaus\, including soprano Gabriella Reyes as the journalist Rosalba\, bass-baritone Greer Grimsley as the ship’s captain\, baritone Mattia Olivieri as his enigmatic first mate\, tenor Mario Chang as the captain’s nephew Arcadio\, and mezzo-soprano Nancy Fabiola Herrera and baritone Michael Chioldi as the feuding couple Paula and Alvaro.
