SAMPLE EDUCATIONAL EVENTS

GLIMPSES OF ITALY, May 2005

 

 

DARING DEEDS OF OPERA, 
July 2005

 

 

 

Annamaria performed for over 700 students in 3 schools in Bergen County.  The performance included how opera started in Italy, what makes opera exciting and what it is like to sing.  The performances were well received and the kids very enthusiastic about opera.

Annamaria visited the Caldwell Public Library and showed kids and adults alike the daring world of opera.  She sang and also showed how an aria and the music in opera tells you what to do.  Kids got to hold props and answer questions. A fun night for all, including the adults.

How OPERALICIOUS!

  Opera Diva Annamaria Stefanelli has created a coloring book about opera.  If you are interested in learning more about her coloring book, please send us an email.
