Concerts in the Village (CITV) opens its 2023 – 2024 season with a concert performance of Beethoven’s only opera, FIDELIO. A story of love and freedom, Fidelio celebrates the rescue of a political prisoner, Florestan (sung by tenor Eric Finbarr Carey), by his beloved wife, Leonore (sung by soprano Caroline Dunigan), who disguises herself as a prison guard named Fidelio in order to free her husband. The seven wonderful soloists will be joined by the Broad Street Orchestra, Broad Street Chorale, and speaker Wheelock Whitney in presenting this dynamic work.
