On the Avenue: Embrace Winter Festival brings the opera to Third Avenue
They’re singing for your supper — literally!
Talented members of Regina Opera Company will be making a special appearance “on the avenue” to kick off the annual Embrace Winter Festival — sponsored by Bay Ridge Arts & Cultural Alliance (BRACA) in partnership with the Merchants of Third Avenue Civic Improvement Association, Inc. — on Sunday, Feb 26.
As part of this annual celebration of the arts, Regina Opera soloists including mezzo-soprano Lara Tillotson and baritone Nigel Smith will perform a free one-hour concert for patrons at Vesuvio Restaurant, 7305 Third Ave. beginning at noon. The soloists will be accompanied by flutist Richard Paratley and pianist Catherine Miller.
