The Fiddleheads are a Celtic Folk rock band from Belleville, Ontario comprised of members from Cape Breton to Calgary. They are energetic and fun and can handle any show from a kitchen party to a Tattoo!
From The Metropolitan Opera and Cineplex Events, we bring you an encore presentation of Dead Man Walking on the big screen at the Capitol.
American composer Jake Heggie’s compelling masterpiece, the most widely performed new opera of the last 20 years, arrives in cinemas on October 21 in a haunting new production by Ivo van Hove. Based on Sister Helen Prejean’s memoir about her fight for the soul of a condemned murderer, Dead Man Walking matches the high drama of its subject with Heggie’s beautiful and poignant music and a brilliant libretto by Terrence McNally. Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium, with mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato starring as Sister Helen. The outstanding cast also features bass-baritone Ryan McKinny as the death-row inmate Joseph De Rocher, soprano Latonia Moore as Sister Rose, and legendary mezzo-soprano Susan Graham—who sang Helen Prejean in the opera’s 2000 premiere—as De Rocher’s mother.
The ensemble includes the rock band, Michael White and The White, along with special guest violinists. They will also be joined onstage by the Cobourg Collegiate Music Department conducted by Peter Riccio. Together onstage they create a magical space to share with audiences as they perform new and exciting arrangements of the greatest hits of Led Zeppelin. These orchestral arrangements remain true to the rockin’ spirit of the music while incorporating a unique symphonic sensibility that creates a classic new vibe that comes alive in its’ own right.
This musical production is an incredible sound experience and visual extravaganza complete with a psychedelic liquid light show projected in high definition with a retro kaleidoscope of colour burst images designed to transport your mind to an alternate space and time. This classic rock live concert will have even the most ardent Zeppelin and Who fans cheering for more.
