Opera Talks at the Glendora Public Library
The Glendora Public Library and the Glendora Public Library Friends Foundation and the Library Community Volunteers are pleased to partner with the LA Opera to present a series of Opera Talks- interactive presentations led by members of the LA Opera Speaker’s Bureau, a team of trained volunteer experts. Each Opera Talk will be an insightful talk that will address the history, literature, philosophy and fine arts within the context of opera.
The third “Opera Talk” will be Saturday, May 4 at 2:00 pm in the Bidwell Forum. It will focus on Behind the Scenes at the Opera. Opera is not just magnificent music, dance and theater with astounding sets on a beautiful stage; opera can sweep you away to foreign lands, take you back in time, dazzle you with pageantry and bring history to life. It is literature, social studies, cultural diversity, multiple languages and most of all, it is exciting! We will explore the world of opera, behind the curtain.
