Tonight, we will pick two winners (one male and one female). Note, while we will be in official Ball attire, for those who choose, we ask you to now wear your Venetian “mask” in a unique contest. Two opera singers will be on hand for a live exclusive performance (from the Baroque, through the romantic period and to today). Tonight we present you with a unique sampling of timeless classics from the leading Opera houses of Italy. From Monteverdi’s creations at the Teatro San Cassiano, to Rossini’s comic operas such as The Barber of Seville, to the new and rising opera pièces of the 21st Century, the standard for all opera originates in, and permeates, the Italian soul. Since then, Italy has created much of the world’s greatest opera. The first opera was performed in 1600 at the wedding of Maria de Medici and Henry IV of France at the Palazzo Pitti in Florence. Following the demonstration, our instructors will offer a brief ballroom lesson to keep you dancing the way Venetians danced for centuries. Tonight’s Ball will fill the room with Italy’s and Europe’s greatest classical ballroom treasures as you dance the night away in this unique, authentic setting.Ĥ) VENETIAN BALLROOM DANCE PRESENTATION & LESSON:Ī masterful local Ballroom instructor/couple will perform a special dance show highlighting the ballroom classics as danced for centuries in the balls at Piazza San Marco .
