Dueling Divas: Valentines Concert at MarshAnne Landing Winery

Sunday, February 13, 2:30 PM, Oakland Oregon

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with an afternoon of passionate opera arias and love songs. The Divas, sopranos Brooke Cagno and Allison Sanders who perform with the Eugene Opera and the Portland Opera, will bring their amazing talents to the concert stage at MarshAnne Landing. The solo and duet performances will provide enough romance and excitement to raise your pulse.

The afternoon’s concert will feature selections from La Boheme, Marriage of Figaro, Carmen, The Magic Flute, Tales of Hoffman, as well as selections from Gilbert and Sullivan. Two amazing duets will showcase the beauty of opera’s finest moments. Sull’ aria from Marriage of Figaro was the performance of angels featured in the movie Shawshank Redemption. The second is the hauntingly beautiful Flower Duet from Delibes Lakme. The lovely interplay of the Diva’s voices will leave everyone wanting more from these beauties.

Seating is limited for this one time performance (only 45) so please call for reservations and directions (541-459-7998). Admission of $30 includes a wide selection of appetizers.

About the "One Bottle" Project

A number of years ago I was tasked with finding a way to raise money to help with operation costs fora local chamber orchestra. I have many friends in the wine business and know that they are continually ask for cases, half cases, bottles, tastings, etc, and that it gets old fast. They are all very giving and caring people but they can't give away all their wine to help other people.
With that in mind, I decided that if I were going to ask anyone for wine, I would do it in person and just ask for one bottle. I drove my Subaru Legacy Wagon all over the state, putting on 180,000 miles.
The first year I gathered over 150 and last year I ended up with 259 bottles of Oregon wines for our auction. This year I gathered less because I knew that too much wine would be a problem for a "mixed" auction. This year I plan to create an auction for just the wine, separate from any other event.I was given wines from every wine region we have. I drove from Cave Junction (Foris) to Milton Freewater (Zerba) and to Bend (Volcano) Bonanza (12 Ranch) and the coast(Flying Dutchman). I traveled all over the Willamette Valley and Southern Oregon on my quest, met hundreds of wonderful wine people, made new friends, and tasted the bounty of Oregon.
I look forward to this years journey in my brand new Subaru Legacy and the support of all who helped last year and the year before, and of my wonderful wife, who puts up with this crazy idea!
