We are hard at work preparing the music for our final concert of the season on May 16. And meanwhile, the dancers of ArtistsPlus Productions are preparing to dance the story of The Unicorn, The Gorgon, and the Manticore. These photos (courtesy of Whitney Browne and ArtistsPlus Productions) will entice you!
Please join us for a thrilling program to close our 33rd season of beautiful singing!

Great Opera Choruses
Chorale Bel Canto, 80-voices strong, will sing eight well-known opera choruses. Soloists will be young artists from Redlands Opera Theatre.
