UCSB Opera Outreach: Lucinda y las Flores de la Nochebuena

UCSB Associate Professor Isabel Bayrakdarian will direct undergraduate students from UCSB’s Opera Outreach Program in a free community performance of Evan Mack’s 2016 children’s opera Lucinda y las Flores de la Nochebuena on Sunday, December 8, 2019 at 6 pm in Karl Geiringer Hall on the UC Santa Barbara campus. The 45-minute one-act opera is based on the Mexican folk tale of the same name that tells the story of how the poinsettia became a meaningful symbol of the holiday season.

Pink Martini: Holiday Show – A Santa Barbara Tradition

The internationally-acclaimed “little orchestra” Pink Martini will deck the hall with festive holiday songs from around the globe, from timeless classics to rarely heard gems. At what is sure to be the best holiday party you’ll attend this year, they will perform tracks from their holiday album, Joy to the World, with classics like “White Christmas” alongside Hebrew prayers, Chinese New Year tunes and a samba-inspired version of “Auld Lang Syne,” as well as crowd favorites from their non-holiday albums. “This multi-denominational, multicultural jubilee overflows with enough holiday spirit to warm your entire family” (NPR). Pink Martini’s infectiously joyous music will have you dancing in the aisles.

“Rich, hugely approachable, utterly cosmopolitan yet utterly unpretentious... It seems to speak to just about everybody.” The Washington Post
