WEST VANCOUVER'’S Herbert Ray continues
his assent to national acclaim in a new Vancouver
Opera production of Rossini’s comic opera The

Barber of Seville.

The North Shore tenor
sings the roles of Fiorello,
Ambroggio and the
Sargeant.

Rossini’s light-hearted
perennial favorite, opening
Sat, Jan. 18 at Queen
Elizabeth Theatre, is sung in
Italian and is full of the fa-
miliar musig that has kept
audiences humming for 170
years,

Ray. who studied in
Toronto, Vancouver and at
the Banff School of Fine
Arts, has been a member of
Vancouver's Opera Chorus
since 1979.

He was last) seen as
Amelia's servant ina Mask-
ed Ball and as the chorus
leader in Eugene Onegin.
Last season Ray appeared as
the first prisoner in Fidelio.

Mono Statos and Morales
are two of Rays upcoming
performances.

Mezzo-soprano Janet

Stubbs plays the vivacious
and flirtatious Rosina in The
Barber of Seville.

Stubbs was last heard with
Vancouver Opera two
seasons ago as Niclausse in
The Tales of Hoffman.

Tenor Dennis O'Neill,
remembered for his perfor-
miances fast year in A Mask-
ed Balland / Puritani, sings
the Count Almaviva, and the
befuddled Dr. Bartolo is
sung by bass-baritone
Cleude Corbeil, who last
appeared for Vancouver
Opera as Timur in) Turan-
dot.

The happy-go-lucky
barber Figaro is sung by
Canadian baritone Theodore
Buerg, who is making his
Vancouver Opera debut.

The show will play Jan.
(8, 21, 23 and 25. Ail per-
formances are at 8 p.m. in
the Queen Elizabeth

Theatre.
