Summer Opera Showcase Continues with RECUERDOS DE ESPANA

Continuing the collaboration between Church of Beethoven - Oak Park and Bradley Schuller, tenor and producer, Bradley Schuller announces the 2nd of the new combined "Opera Showcase Series". For this summer concert, transport ourselves to one of their most favorite places... Spain.

From the Mesquita Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba to the Alhamba Castle of Granada.

Come share with us the magnificent sights and sounds of Andalusia.

Four of Chicago's finest musicians will take you on a musical odyssey exploring the intersection between the traditions of classical composition and flamenco music from the southern region of Spain. Let us transport you to a place where the cultural roots of Sephardi Jews, North African Arabs and European Christians intermingled to produce magnificent blossoms of architecture, instrumental music and song. We will also present the arias and duets from Bizet's masterpiece Carmen set in Sevilla!

Embrace the summer heat!

From bulerias to bolero and much in between.
In Andalusia, where summer temperatures average 97•F until well after midnight, that the music created there is sultry as well will come as no surprise.

Join Tenor Bradley Schuller, Mezzo- Soprano Erin Moll, mezzo-soprano, Pianist Anatoliy Torchinskiy and Guitarist Marcus Dunleavy at the Oak Park (air conditioned) Open Door Rep in a celebration of the music of Francisco Tarrega, Issac Albeniz, Manuel De Falla, Maurice Ravel, Georges Bizet and more.

Tickets are only $20 and available online now.
