You never go to sleep before singing E lucevan le stelle or sing Carmen‘s Habanera in your head every time you meet a new man? Your friends constantly remind you that you should have completed your Cegep in music instead of administration? You prefer Broadway musicals? No problemo! I’m expecting you to show up, tomorrow night, 7 p.m., place Émilie-Gamelin, for Karaoke Opera, an event organised by Opéra de Montréal and The KARAOKE Channel, as part of the Montréal Pride Celebrations 2010.

The press release states: “Whether singing solo or with a group of friends, singers will choose from a selection of operatic arias in the style of Verdi, Bizet, Puccini, Mozart, Saint-Saëns and Rossini from works such as Carmen, Aida, La bohème, Tosca and others. Broadway selections include songs from West Side Story, Rent, My Fair Lady and more.”

So, I’ll see you there? Don’t count on me to step on the stage though and sing at the top of my lungs. (I’d be perfect in the accompanist’s role but I’m off the hook, technology will replace me!) I’ll be there to cheer you on though.

Lucie
