Portland, OR. The Portland Opera is teaming up with All Classical Portland to bring you some virtual cheer this holiday season. It’s a program they’re calling the Winter Wonderland Sing-Along.
This special 1-hour program will be broadcast on All Classical Portland 89.9 on Sunday, Dec 20th at noon and will feature seasonal favorites and stories with on-air host Suzanne Nance and special guest soprano and Artistic Advisor Karen Slack.
Portland Opera has crafted a way for listeners to sing-along karaoke-style to a curated songbook of holiday classics online with recorded accompaniment by pianist David Saffert. Record your family singing and tag the opera at @portlandopera and @allclassicalportland or email your videos and Portland Opera will repost: [email protected].
Portland Opera is also encouraging you to contribute what you’re able to support its ongoing efforts.
The holiday celebration also includes sing-alongs from past years recorded in All Classical Portland’s studios, and performances by countertenor Aryeh Nussbaum Cohen (who was to make his Portland Opera debut as Tamerlano in our production of Vivaldi’s Bajazet last spring), flutist Adam Eccleston, and pianist David Saffert. Don’t miss program highlights such as Luciano Pavarotti‘s recording of “Adeste Fidelis” and Leontyne Price singing “Ave Maria.”
