Pocket Opera presents Bizet’s exotic opera The Pearl Fishers. On the exotic island then called Ceylon, home of the pearl fishers, two equally passionate young men, closest of friends since childhood, simultaneously fall in love with a beautiful but seemingly inaccessible lady. Will their friendship survive? Or will rivalry tear the two apart?
Diane Grubbe has appeared as a soloist with the Siena Music Festival in Italy, the San Francisco Concerto Orchestra, L’Orchestre de Notre Dame in San Francisco and the Calabasas Chamber Orchestra in Southern California, with whom she recorded the Vivaldi Piccolo Concerto for their CD The Baroque Concerto.
