We partner a highly motivated, well trained community chorus with outstanding professionals in an innovative and successful model that attracts performers from all backgrounds and musical levels. The Manhattan Opera Repertory Ensemble will present a gala opera concert Saturday August 24 at 7:30 pm to benefit Most Precious Blood Church, 109 Mulberry Street in Little Italy , NYC. The church was esta

blished in 1888 to serve Italian immigrants. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Tickets for the benefit are $30 at the door, or $20 in advance through the church office at (212) 226-6427, or by contacting the ADVANCE box office at 212-252-2512 (voice mail) or [email protected].
