I’M THRILLED TO BE MAKING MY MAINSTAGE ACTING DEBUT AS HAUSHOFMEISTER (MAJOR DOMO) IN THIS FABULOUS OPERA BY RICHARD STRAUSS!

What begins as a frantic rehearsal for both an opera and a comic play spirals into creative mayhem when the wealthy patron funding the event decrees that both must be performed simultaneously. The result is a joyous, touching collision of tragedy and comedy, revealing both the absurdity and the beauty of making art.

Director Paul Curran’s new staging divides itself between a grand Viennese villa and a miniature Baroque theatre. This shifting visual world mirrors the opera’s musical dialogue between classical formality and contemporary wit—a daring fusion of opera seria and commedia dell’arte.

Conducted by Johannes Debus, the COC Orchestra captures both the sparkling humour and emotional grandeur of R. Strauss’s score.

For tickets go to Ariadne auf Naxos - Canadian Opera Company

ADI BRAUN "INSPIRED BY NATURE" AT LIVELAB THEATRE

Adi Braun: Inspired by Nature

with Robert Horvath (piano) and Bill McBirnie (flute)

 “Humans have been fascinated with nature since time immemorial.  In it we have often seen our own emotions reflected in ways that defy mere words. Poets and composers of the Romantic era were particularly drawn to nature as companion, confidante and even healer.

For this project I have selected songs from the classical, pop, folk and jazz realms that have been inspired by nature and our inextricable existence with it.  In choosing these songs I noticed a curious kind of parallel motion between genres and natural pairings became obvious in the overall flow of the musical narrative.”

NOIR (livestream; previously recorded)

ADI BRAUN AT THE LIVELAB THEATRE, HAMILTON

“NOIR”

Adi Braun invites you to an evening of delicious and dangerous music from the era of the Film Noir.  Let the words and music transport you back to a time where Marlene Dietrich wraps you in the arms of “The Blue Angel” (1931), Doris Day sings of Ruth Etting’s woes in “Love me or Leave Me” (1955), where you become seduced by the haunting beauty of David Raskin’s melody “Laura”, (1944) and you taste the bittersweet reality of life in “As Time Goes By” (1942).

“Noir” is a show filled with songs and repartee from this truly unique period in film-making where, as Fay Helm said in “Phantom Lady”, there are “no names, no addresses – just companions for the evening”.
