"Brij Closed"
On Friday, March, 8th, Opera Columbus performed The Three Billy Goats Gruff for students at Hilliard Horizon Elementary. The trio of opera singers have been working with Mrs. Romine, our music teacher, and some of our building's finest singers. Through amazing music and singing, the show taught us about bullying, how we can deal with it, and why people sometimes bully. Here is a description from Opera Columbus:
Bring opera into your school and teach students about the effects of bullying with an operatic version of the well-known story of The Billy Goats Gruff set to music by Mozart, Donizetti, and Rossini. With Opera goes to school! your students have a chance to share the stage with professional opera singers. An after-school game of hide and seek is ruined for three billy goat friends when a big bully blocks a bridge, preventing them from being able to go home. Each of the goats chooses how to deal with the conflict, but in the end, all three learn that compassion turns a would-be adversary into a new friend.Check out some clips from the performance!
