For post-Epiphany, we’re repeating the Britten Ceremony of Carols with harp accompaniment and additional vocal solos. The free concert is offered by the Scuola di Musica Giuseppe Verdi, and will be held in Venice:

  • 6p, this Wednesday, January 9
  • at the modest venue of the Foresteria Valdese, which is housed in the Palazzo Cavagnis (the Valdese Cultural Center)

The address is Castello 5170 it’s just over the bridge at the end of the Calle Santa Maria Formosa just off the Campo (not far from the famosa Mascareta).

I’d forgotten to mention the harpist in the previous announcement. Lei è bravissima, and it would be worth attending if only to enjoy her performance.

Although our harpist is professional, we are not; what we lack in polish…oh, we just love to sing. (Yesterday’s rehearsal went quite well, I would say…)
