Una Voce Poco Fa … with a Wardrobe Malfunction!

Here I am singing “Una Voce Poco Fa” from the Barber of Seville at my “Red Carpet Dreaming” Fundraiser for the Canadian Centre for Abuse Awareness in Toronto, Canada on May 27th, 2011.

For a little laugh, check out the wardrobe malfunction at 42 seconds. Oops!

So if you have been following my work for a bit, you are probably thinking… “She sings Opera?” – yup! For years I trained towards my operatic performance diploma and even sang solo with the Downsview Symphony. Since this was my first performance in my hometown in a bit, I decided to pay homage to my roots. It was soooo fun.

Let me know if you like this side of me… maybe I will throw in a Carmen at my next show!

Okay here it is:

The Canadian Centre for Abuse Awareness raises awareness about the true cost of neglect and abuse and supports over 130 organizations nationally, including children’s services, victims’ services, shelters and other agencies that deal with over 200,000 children, women and men whose lives have been affected by abuse.
