There's no place like home for the holidays with a family festival of traditional and contemporary songs, music, sing-a-longs, and more. This seasonal stroll of timeless classics and sentimental wintertime favorites is guaranteed to make the season merry.
| Meet special guest Mia Pafumi |
|
We are thrilled to announce that Westfield native, and award-winning soprano, Mia Pafumi will join us for Home for the Holidays! A graduate of Westfield High School, special guest Mia Pafumi will partner with Maestro Wroe and NJ Festival Orchestra to perform both popular holiday favorites and winter curiosities. Many will remember Mia from her starring roles in Westfield High School theater productions. Now she is a fully professional singer sharing her vocal talents far and wide! Mia began 2014 as an Apprentice Artist for the Sarasota Opera’s Winter Festival season, which included Verdi’s Il Trovatore, Jerusalem and Wagner’s Der Fliegende Holländer in Sarasota, Florida. This spring she took second place in the Violetta DuPont International Vocal Competition and received a grant from the Giulio Gari Foundation’s 2014 International Vocal Competition. Mia performed during the summer with Josh Greene and Carol Yahr’s New York Summer Opera. A recent graduate from Montclair State University’s Cali School of Music, Mia also studied at the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatorio di Musica di Milano in Milan, Italy. |
