Emanuela Barazia-Joll (wife of Merthyr-born opera star Phillip Joll) and her students of “The-Joy-of-Singing-Studio” are happy to announce the next Concert in honour of opera star Adelina Patti (Madrid 10 Feb 1843 – Craig y Nos 27 September 1919).
All ready for Adelina, is my new motto! We’ll celebrate this cosmopolitan citizen of the world and Belcantista sublime who was born in Madrid from Italian parents and grew up in USA, but felt in love with Wales. She left this world a hundreds years ago but lives forever, and we’ll sing under her star and the ones of fellow musicians who lived during her period. Emanuela, as mezzosoprano-Falcon, will portray a personal picture of Patti, with anecdotes and curious aspects of her life, and with my fellow singers we will sing a large variety of songs composed or inspired by the Victorian era in which Adelina Patti lived. We are happy to announce the participation of the lovely harpist Arween and to invite all of you to participate and sing something with us, to have some prosecco for the very special Traviata toast at the end!
