April 18: Open rehearsal with Windham Orchestra

On Monday, April 18 at 7 p.m.
 at the River Garden, 157 Main St., Brattleboro, 

musicians, music lovers, opera buffs and other culture aficionados are invited to an open rehearsal of the traditional operatic pairing of Cavalleria Rusticana and Pagliacci, hosted by the Windham Orchestra.

The double bill of Cavalleria Rusticana, an opera in one act by Pietro Mascagni to an Italian libretto by Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti and Guido Menasci, and Pagliacci by Ruggero Leoncavallo, is known as “Cav/Pag” and has been performed since 1893. The public performances of these works by the Windham Orchestra are set for June 5 and 12.
