Caught Lucia Lucas’ recital this afternoon - and WOW! What an incredible powerhouse performer!
Her Q and A after was so warm and generous! Thank you #Uvic and #PacificOperaVictoria for bringing Lucia here and making the recital available to the community for free! #Arts #YYJArt
Eclectic HumanJust finishing my traditional post-opera #scotch after seeing Pacific Opera Victoria's #TheLittlePrince. The music is charming, and the production had many delightful touches, notably an oddly endearing airplane crash and some gleefully evil baobab trees. Kudos to an impeccable orchestra and amazing children's choir!

Just savoured an exuberant performance of The Marriage of Figaro: a very fine cast, music to swoon to, and a gorgeously whimsical Miró-inspired set.
As always, the best part of the evening was the post-opera #whisky in my jammies. #Mozart would, I'm sure, approve.

Overcame my Fünfstündigenopernaufführungsangst (fear of five-hour #operas) to attend Wagner's Die Walküre — a production full of verve and beauty.
Technically, #DieWalküre clocks in at a mere four hours, but the intermissions make for a five-hour evening. #Wagner is a tad longwinded, but ahh! the music!
Home now, relaxing with a #whisky.
