I conceived this project as a way to learn music and stay busy during social distancing measures. The result is more than I could have hoped for. It is imperfect, but honest and genuine. I am so lucky to have many talented friends, and the Canadian opera scene is full of amazing, generous artists who jumped at the chance to collaborate. We all filmed ourselves with limited equipment and space, so please excuse the non-studio quality sound. A big thank you to everyone who participated, gave advice, and supported this project.

Opera is a live art form and digital content will never replace the experience of live music, but I hope you've enjoyed this and will continue to support opera in this time of need. Arts organizations are particularly vulnerable and rely on the generocity of donors and sponsors at all times. Hopefully we can all get back into the theatres soon.
