Opera for the Young


The opera is coming on October 30 to Longfellow School.  This year it will be "The Barber of Seville"  by Gioacchino Rossini, and the Opera for the Young Company of Madison, WI.  The opera is brought to us by our wonderful Longfellow PTO.  This is the 10th opera the PTO has brought to Longfellow, thank you so much!

The Barber of Seville will be set in the 1950"s and Figaro is a biker dude and Rosina, the beautiful young lady will be decked out in a poodle skirt and saddle shoes.   Students are learning the storyline and some of the music in music class.
