REHOBOTH BEACH – “Opera at the Beach,” sponsored by UNICO Delaware – Rehoboth Area Chapter, returns on March 15.
This outstanding event was begun in 2015, featuring professional artists from the Wilmington area. Since 2016, mezzo soprano Andrea Arena has delighted audiences throughout Delaware with her sensational voice and charm.
Accompanied by various tenors including Chris Lorge and pianist Matthew Jewel, Andrea headlines a concert held from 6 to 9 p.m. in St. Edmond Roman Catholic Church in Rehoboth, which offers excellent acoustics and seating for an evening of classical and religious music and arias.
Throughout the years this special fundraiser has supported cancer research, St. Jude Children’s Hospital, disaster aid and other causes.
The event has been on hiatus since 2019 due to COVID and other circumstances.
A “meet the artists” reception will follow the performance in the Parish Hall with hors d’oeuvres and appetizers prepared by Sunny Bay Café of Rehoboth Beach.
Tickets cost $50 per person and are available online at unicodelawaredistrict1@gmail.com or by calling (302) 266-0620.
