Coffee at Kerr Tickets

Small, intimate setting with great acoustics. Composer/librettist was informative, engaging, and charismatic. The performers’ talent was evident!

It was so great to meet the composer of the opera. It made the event very special and he was so incredibly interesting and entertaining. Job well done!

What a great way to learn about opera and to enjoy a sneak preview of the shows.

I watched online and loved it but the sound could have been much louder (for next time).

Once again David Schildkret delivered an insightful, educational, and enjoyable discussion on one of my favorite operas. This time the subject was Giacomo Puccini's La bohème and David didn't disappoint. His insights gave me new knowledge of the work and its composer that will only enhance my enjoyment whenever I hear it performed. Bravo!

The lecturer about Don Giovanni was excellent and so were the two opera singers. I would highly recommend this experience.

The program was excellent. Very enjoyable. But why the introduction regarding indigenous people and the land we are on? C’mon already.

Except for the metallic sound in the speakers this was amazing

The two singers were wonderful. I just wish there had been more singing. From our previous experience (Barber of Seville), there was about equal time between lecture (with some audience participation) and singing. This time, there was mainly a lecture, with too much detail—date of birth, name of spouse, etc —about Shakespeare, the composer and librettist. Seemed like a college class. Otherwise the speaker was an excellent singer.

These programs are absolute gems!! I'm afraid to say how good they are because too many people will find out about it and make it harder to get tickets (seats). Seriously, you don't have to be an opera fan to enjoy the presentations. And if you are not, you will become one.
