Free Masterclass with Black Violin (Tuesdays and Fridays 2:00pm)

The Black Violin MasterClass (BVMC) Series is an outside the box, live stream interactive workshop that allows students to look at their instruments from a different perspective. Our goal is to instill confidence in young musicians so they can find their own unique voice using whatever instrument they play.  BVMC is geared toward string musicians but can be a great resource for any music student searching for ways to be more creative with their respective instrument.

Gilbert and Sullivan's H.S.M. Pinafore Presented by Miami Dade College Kendall Campus

Directed by Misty Bermudez, conducted by Dr. Leo Walz, and performed by MDC Kendall Opera Theater Ensemble, H.M.S. Pinafore was the first collaboration between famed partners W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan. Since its London premiere in 1878, H.M.S. Pinafore has charmed audiences with its humorous tale of love between different social classes. This nautical romance filled with endearing characters and memorable tunes kicks off when the Captain of the Pinafore makes arrangements for his daughter to marry the Lord Admiral of the Navy. Difficulties arise between father and daughter when she reveals her love for a low ranking seaman aboard the ship. Ironically the Captain finds himself in a similar position as he is falling for a dockside vendor called Little Buttercup. As in many of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas, an astonishing disclosure changes everything in the end.
