Alberta Vocal Arts is bringing its first show to the Polaris Centre for the Performing Arts east of Balzac on Oct. 28 with hopes to break barriers between the operatic artform and everyday Albertans.

​

“The opera world and the classical vocal world is sometimes seen as out of touch or not being able to connect with modern audiences,” said Kathleen Morrison, the founder, and artistic and executive director of Alberta Vocal Arts, a new non-profit organization focusing on classical vocal arts in Alberta.
