Friends of Music at Guilford (FOMAG) is teaming up with New Hampshire's Raylynmor Opera for a concert at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, October 1, in the sanctuary of Guilford Community Church. Founded in 1995, Raylynmor has presented 38 full-length operas at various locations in our "twin state." The organization's artistic director, Benjamin Robinson, has been working with FOMAG to create the "Viva la Voce!" program of operatic delights. Featured singers, who have all appeared in Raylynmor productions, include sopranos Molly McCoy and Julie Olsson, as well as bass-baritone Tom Cochran. Pianist Ken Olsson, a singer himself, is accompanying the trio of vocalists, who have chosen some of their favorite arias for this performance. These selections, to be presented with a bit of theatrical flair, are from Puccini's "Gianni Schicchi" and "La Bohème," Menotti's "The Old Maid and The Thief," Verdi's "Aïda" and "La Forza del Destino," Mozart's "Don Giovanni" and "The Magic Flute," Berlioz's "La Damnation de Faust," Wagner's "Tannhäuser," and Humperdinck's "Hansel and Gretel." Guilford Community Church is at 38 Church Dr. in the Algiers village of Guilford, just over a mile from Exit 1 off Interstate 91. Take Rt. 5 south to Bee Barn Rd. on the left just past the Guilford Country Store; turn left from Bee Barn into Church Dr. Suggested donation for "Viva la Voce!" is $15 per person, which includes a teatime dessert reception.
