Student Matinee - Rossini's Cinderella
Attend an Opera Colorado production starring the next generation of opera stars!
Opera Colorado’s Young Artists are emerging opera performers dedicated to bringing opera to audiences who might otherwise never experience the art form. For seven months each year, the Young Artists visit schools and community venues throughout Colorado and surrounding areas and perform in concerts, touring operas, and school programs. The Young Artists will also perform in a special matinee presentation of Cinderella with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra. A young girl yearns for true love while under the thumb of her cruel stepfather and vain stepsisters. But when Cinderella offers kindness to a stranger, her fate is forever altered as she is whisked away to the ball and becomes the woman who captures the prince’s heart. Rossini’s version of the classic folk tale is a delight, and in the end, Cinderella’s transformation is brought about not by supernatural powers, but through the magic of music.
