I have had my fair share of spending Valentine's Day dateless. In the world of opera, Galentine's Day becomes a symphony of celebration, bringing together vocal virtuosos for a unique blend of harmony, love, and laughter. Here's a guide to curate a special Galentine's Day for some of your bestie opera singer friends that hit all the right notes.
Opera-Themed Dinner Party:
La TRAVIATA anyone? Set the stage with an elegant dinner featuring dishes inspired by famous operas. Get the partyvsrltarted with a few custom created cocktails or mocktails! Create a playlist of romantic arias to accompany the meal, setting a melodious tone for the evening.
Vocal Workshop and Masterclass:
One of my favorite things to do in recent years is to attend a class of some sort. It could be a cooking class, dance class, or even arrange a vocal workshop where singers can share their expertise and learn from one another. Creat custom gift bags for everyone and invite singers to perform their favorite romantic song or aria. Consider inviting a renowned vocal coach for a special masterclass, fostering a sense of camaraderie among fellow artists.
Love Songs Recital:
Host a mini-recital where singers perform their favorite love songs from operas. Encourage a diverse selection, showcasing the beauty of different styles and eras in opera.
DIY Vocal Care Workshop:
Show love to your instrument by organizing a vocal care workshop. Share tips and tricks for maintaining vocal health, ensuring that the gift of voice keeps resonating with passion.
Love Letters to Opera:
Provide a space for singers to write heartfelt letters expressing their love for opera. These letters can be shared anonymously, creating an atmosphere of appreciation and gratitude within the community.
Remember, Galentines Day for opera singers is about celebrating the unique bond forged through a shared love for music. By taking a moment to be creative, you can orchestrate a memorable celebration reminding other singers that learning to take care of themselves and sharing in friendship will combat the loneliness many feel on this day. Cheers to a day filled with love, laughter, and operatic brilliance!
