Bringing Moving Music & Visual Art to the Streets

Public Singing Practice

AUGUST 2013

SERENADE THE HARP, THE SWAN AND THE EAGLE, A GROUP OF CONSTELLATIONS FORMING A SUMMER TRIANGLE.

Calling all singers, groups, choirs, and those who sing in the shower! Opera-Matic invited families, adults, and singers of all kinds to the Garfield Park Conservatory's back lawn "practice space" to learn original songs by Opera-Matic. Inspired by the full moon and a group of August constellations: the Summer Triangle. 

Coupled with astronomers from the Adler Planetarium and Northwestern University, telescopic viewing, pinhole leaf constellation creating, flashlight choreography and tales of the universe were among the evening's program. 

Opera-Matic programming is partially supported by grants from the Illinois Arts Council Agency and CityArts, a program of the Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events. Opera-Matic programs are also made possible through support from the Safe & Peaceful Communities Fund, Night Out in the Parks, and more. Visit our "Support" page for more information.
