The Manhattan Opera Repertory Ensemble (MORE Opera), a Manhattan-based nonprofit focused on providing vocal arts education and music performance, will present Opera Night at the 2024 San Gennaro Festival in the heart of Manhattan’s Little Italy on Monday, September 16, 2024 from 7:00 to 9:00 PM on the festival’s mainstage located at Mott and Grand Streets on the Lower East Side.
The performance features tenor Paolo Buffagni, baritone Gustavo Feulien, and soprano Cheryl Warfield singing operatic arias and duets from La Traviata, La Boheme, Aida, Cavalleria Rusticana, and crowd favorites including Nessun dorma from Turandot and the Neapolitan classic O sole mio, accompanied by classical pianist Olga Gurevich.
This is MORE Opera’s second year presenting Opera Night for the festival. For over 20 years, MORE Opera has made classical music and opera accessible through culturally responsive programming, free public performances, educational initiatives, and community choral training.
“The community nature of our work is especially important. We take pride in our efforts to bring professional-level opera performances directly to audiences that might not otherwise have opportunities to enjoy and participate in high-quality multicultural programs,“ said Warfield, founder of MORE Opera and producer of the event.
The Feast of San Gennaro 2024 in Little Italy, NYC runs from Thursday September 12 through Sunday September 22. For more information visit https://sangennaronyc.org/.
