Songs from the Silver Screen and Beyond

Lorina Gore and Alex Raineri deliver two intimate performances as part of the Opera Queensland Studio Series.

You may have experienced Lorina Gore’s exceptional portrayal of Violetta in our 2022 production of La Traviata, but now, you have a unique opportunity to witness her talent up close and personal in our Studio Series recital.

This recital, titled ‘Reaching for the Moon,’ features exquisite songs by renowned songwriters with Lorina sharing secrets and insights into the music that defined her career.

Lorina says, ‘We will be taking a little musical journey through time from the early 1930’s through until the 1960’s. Alex and I have programmed some absolutely wonderful songs by classic songwriters such as Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, and Leonard Bernstein. The song ‘Reaching for the Moon’ which is the title of the recital, is a popular song written by Irving Berlin for the movie of the same name. It was subsequently recorded by both Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra’.

Performances of around an hour are a wonderful way to deepen your understanding of song and the performers whose lives have been shaped by them.

Kawai is a proud supporter of the Opera Queensland Studio Series.
