September 7, 2013 @ the Greek Theater, UC Berkeley

The Oakland School for the Arts gave away 300 tickets to the Placido Domingo concert at the Greek Theater and we took advantage of it.  We enjoyed  a world class performance by one of the most celebrated tenors of our time.  Placido Domingo performed with Angel Joy Blue and Micaela Oeste, both sopranos.

 

Their program included works from Wagner, Gounod, Verdi, Strauss  and contemporary songs from Frederick Lowe’s “I Could Have Dance All Night” – M y Fair Lady,  Richard Rogers’ “Some Enchanted Evening” – South Pacific, and Leonard Bernstein’s “Tonight” from West Side Story, to name a few.  A truly once in a life-time opportunity!

They performed a total of six encores including “Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better” from Annie Get Your Gun and “If I Loved You” from Carousel and the all-time favorite “Besame Mucho”.  What an evening!
