Bellini to Broadway: Saturday

On Saturday, October 24, at 4:00pm, you will be able to hear the outstanding young voices of five Laffont winners that the SMMT has proudly sponsored, all of whom have gone on to international careers, along with the superb 14-member chorale Artifex Sui. The singers are: Denis Vélez, soprano; Yunuet Laguna, soprano; Alejandro Luévanos, tenor; Efraín Corralejo, tenor; and Mayela López, mezzo-soprano.

For the second time, the Laffont winners’ concert will take place in an elegant venue called the Music Pavilion.

Located in Los Frailes, at El Rio y La Paloma No. 2, the Music Pavilion is a newly restored French neoclassical performance space, modeled after a Newport, Rhode Island, summer mansion. There is plenty of off-street parking available, and parking security.

In addition to a concert of arias, duets and ensembles, with music by composers such as Bellini, Donizetti, Verdi and Puccini in the first half, and selections from Broadway shows such as My Fair Lady, South Pacific, Carousel and West Side Story in the second half, ticket holders will be invited to enjoy wine and hors d’oeuvres in the garden area of the Pavilion.

The Music Pavilion provides an intimate parlor setting, with comfortable furniture throughout. There is no stage per se; the performers circulate among the audience members. Attendance for each concert will be limited to about 50 people. There is a single VIP donation price of 2,200 pesos.
