Powerhouse Colombian–American soprano Catalina Cuervo returns to Detroit to perform a special gala program at Detroit’s Church of the Most Holy Redeemer, in the heart of Mexicantown, on December 17 at 7pm. The free concert will feature holiday classics and sacred pieces in English, Latin, and Spanish. Also performing will be guitarist Álvaro Andrés Bermudez; pianist Nathalie Doucet, Detroit Opera’s Head of Music; and four emerging artists—soprano Melanie Spector; mezzo-soprano Gabrielle Barkidjija; tenor Leo Williams, and baritone Ben Reisinger. Spector, Barkidjija, Williams, and Reisinger are participants in Detroit Opera’s highly competitive 2022–23 Resident Artist Program, selected from among hundreds of singers who applied for the program. 

The holiday concert is a direct result of Detroit Opera’s ongoing work to deepen connections with the Southwest Detroit community. In 2016, Detroit Opera board member Jesse Venegas and his wife, Yesenia, formed a partnership with Holy Redeemer Church. Presentations at the church have included concerts by Catalina Cuervo in 2017 and soprano Cecelia Violeta López in 2019, and Gian Carlo Menotti’s Amahl and the Night Visitors in 2018.

Gala Navideña con Catalina Cuervo

La poderosa soprano colombiana, Catalina Cuervo, regresa a Detroit para realizar un programa de gala especial en la Iglesia Most Holy Redeemer en Detroit, en el centro de Mexicantown, el 17 de diciembre a las 7 p.m. El concierto gratuito contará con clásicos navideños y piezas sacras en inglés, latín y español. También actuarán el guitarrista Álvaro Andrés Bermúdez; la pianista Nathalie Doucet, Directora de Música de la Ópera de Detroit; y cuatro artistas emergentes: la soprano Melanie Spector; la mezzosoprano Gabrielle Barkidjija; el tenor Leo Williams y el barítono Ben Reisinger. Spector, Barkidjija, Williams y Reisinger son participantes en el altamente competitivo Programa de Artistas Residentes 2022–23 de la Ópera de Detroit, seleccionados entre cientos de cantantes que solicitaron el programa. 

El concierto Navideño es un resultado directo del trabajo continuo de la Ópera de Detroit para profundizar las conexiones con la comunidad del suroeste de Detroit. En 2016, el miembro de la junta directiva de la Ópera de Detroit, Jesse Venegas, y su esposa, Yesenia, formaron una sociedad con la Iglesia de Most Holy Redeemer. Las presentaciones en la iglesia han incluido conciertos de Catalina Cuervo en el 2017 y con la soprano Cecelia Violeta López en 2019, y la obra de Amahl and the Night Parties de Gian Carlo Menotti en 2018.
