Voice Training, Bethel Ct - House Concert June 20, 2012Posted by Horovi in Standards , Songs , House Concert , ct , classical , arias |
Four of our older students, Nancy Brant, Peter Gasparo, Tony Bruno, and Lana Levine put on our first ever House Concert on June 20, 2012. Each singer brought their spouse and then there was the two of us. Ten was the perfect number that fit in our studio and around our dining room table.
Nancy opened the program with four classical selections that included several duets that she sang with Christina. Peter followed, dividing his five selections between numbers that he did with Howard at the piano and the use of prerecorded instrumental tracks in the Sinatra-like swing mode.
Lana delivered a beautifully selected set of five songs followed by Tony’s set of similar length. Both were doing interpretations of standards to instrumental tracks. What was special about the evening was not only the music making in an intimate setting but the time spent getting acquainted, ending the evening around the dinner table.
