Happy spring! Yesterday's weather was showing some good signs of spring. Not so sure about today, but oh well. Anyway, I have several concerts coming up that are worth mentioning here. The first is this Saturday at 4 pm at Barclay Square near the Princeton Forrestal Center. That's Princeton, NJ not Illinois. I will be singing some songs and duets with soprano Amy Suznovich, and Lynda Saponara will accompany us on the piano. We will present a unique variety of songs and arias, including some music in Polish. After that I have Holy Week at St. Catherine of Siena church in New York City. Hopefully after that we will still be able to stand up. Then I am producing a concert called "Aftermath Recovery Benefit Concert for Haiyan Disaster Survivors" on Saturday May 3, 2014 at 7 PM. I have a wonderful lineup of singers, plus my aunt Lisa Bottalico dancing flamenco and The Philippine Chamber Rondalla of New Jersey will be playing. We will sing "Bayan Ko" with the Rondalla accompanying. The event is sponsored by web of compassion. If you cannot attend and
still want to donate to
the Typhoon Haiyan Relief Effort please go to webofcompassion.org. My goal is to have a full house at Christ Church, where the event will take place and to raise 2,500 dollars. I hope to see you all there. I am also involved in a repeat of the recital with Amy Suznovich at Highland Park Public library on Thursday June 5, 2014 at 7 PM. In addition I have a concert at the Intrepid museum in NYC on May 15, a concert at St. Catherine of Siena on May 18, plus I am covering a small role with Chelsea Opera and singing in the ensemble of "The Tender Land" on June 13 and 14. So, things are pretty busy. It is good to keep busy though. Even though I will be exhausted I don't mind.
