SUMMARY:The Gypsy Baron
URL:http://www.harbourliving.ca/event/the-gypsy-baron/
LOCATION:Royal Theatre :: 805 Broughton St. Victoria, 
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:The Gypsy Baron is an operetta by the great composer, Johann Strauss Junior. The story tells the tale of a young Hungarian man, Sandor Barinkay, who has inherited his father's dilapidated castle. On the castle lands live a swineherd and his family, and a tribe of gypsies. These two "tenants" have a strained co-existence and Barinkay must determine where his loyalty lies. Once a treasure is found, hidden deep in the castle walls, the relationship between the characters becomes strained. This comes to a sudden end when a group of Hussars recruits all of the men to fight against the Austrians. With a common enemy and the motivation of geographical independence, the two sides become one.=0D=0A=

This will be St. Michaels University School's fifth opera. The condensed story is told, and sung, by Grade 5 students accompanied by a sixteen piece orchestra. If you are an opera lover, this is something you can't miss. Watching the children perform a piece of musical history is inspiring and comical. Opera is for everyone! Hope to see you there.=0D=0A=
