This second “Exploring Opera” seminar of the season is dedicated to Bernstein’s Candide, coming to the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion starting November 21! As the regular kickoff speaker, I will explore Candide‘s historical and musical context as well as its original source material—Voltaire’s satirical novella (1759) of the same name.

The “Exploring Opera” learning series is  a FREE educational initiativeof LA Opera Connects. LAUSD teachers may also earn professional development and salary points.
