Chamber Music Kaua’i presents a one of kind concert experience that brings together Opera, Hawaiian Music, and Hula, presented by global opera talent! Now in its 4th annual tour, Opera Aloha has been joyfully received on the Big Island and O’ahu, and we’re excited to welcome this special program to Kaua’i as part of this year’s tour.
One of the program’s special highlights will be a performance by hula dancer Jelacia Peralta, who will be Kauai’s Miss Aloha Hula contestant at the Merrie Monarch Festival this April!
This is a rare opportunity to hear music sung in an extraordinary range of languages, including Italian, French, English, Māori, Samoan, Native Hawaiian, Portuguese, Tagalog, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, offering a truly one of a kind experience! The program features classic operatic arias, duets, and trios by composers such as Verdi, Puccini, and Gounod, alongside two signature Opera Aloha sets, Taste of Hawaii, featuring songs inspired by the Hawaiian islands, and The Hawaiian Plate, celebrating Hawaii’s multicultural landscape through song.
The exceptional cast includes Samoan soprano Aivale Cole, known internationally for both opera and film music, Māori Chinese bass Morgan Andrew King, currently based at the Frankfurt Opera, and San Francisco based tenor Christopher Oglesby, a regular performer with San Francisco Opera and Opera San José. The concert is produced and performed by pianist Ronny Michael Greenberg, whose work across Hawaii over the past several years has helped shape Opera Aloha into a beloved and distinctive series. Intimate, expressive, and joyfully eclectic, Opera Aloha offers a refreshing concert experience that celebrates artistry, culture, and the power of the human voice!
