Russian Patriarchate Choir of Moscow
Sponsored by Your South Florida Lexus Dealers
November 8 @ 8 p.m.
An ensemble of 12 male voices provides a richly majestic, eerie and transcendental musical experience. The group's concerts encompass two styles of immense creativity in Russian music: chants and prayers from the early 16th-century orthodox church and authentic closeharmony arrangements of Russian folk songs. Founded in the last decade of the Soviet government, the choir spent years decoding manuscripts of then-forbidden religious music. Since 1989, they have given the first performances of many works buried in obscurity for centuries. Their great musicological achievements have earned them a glorious place in the history of choral music, but it is the sheer beauty and intensity of the choir's singing that has won them great acclaim and devoted fans throughout the world.

Cesar Millan 2007 Seminar
November 11 @ 2 p.m.
The star of the Emmy-nominated hit series "Dog Whisperer" brings his magic and wisdom about dogs and dog psychology to this unique live special event. Fans of the show and dog lovers alike will be immersed in Cesar's world for three compelling hours, as the best-selling author of Cesar's Way reveals his secrets to happier, healthier relationships between humans and their canine companions. Participants will come to understand how people can inadvertently play a role in their dog's behavioral "issues"; but also, how to change this dynamic by learning how to see the world through a dog's eyes. Using his gift as an educator and entertainer plus state-of-the-art multimedia to illustrate his unique concepts and ideas - and most importantly, his famous "calm-assertive energy" - Cesar keeps audiences spellbound as he opens them up to amazing new insights about man's best friend - and also, about themselves. See how Cesar's "fulfillment formula" changes lives as he works to make the world a better place....one dog at a time. *VIP ticket holders will have an opportunity to meet Cesar after the seminar. No dogs, other than service dogs, are permitted at the seminar

Cosi fan tutte
November 17 @ 7 p.m.November 21, 24, 27 30 @ 8 p.m.December 2 @ 2 p.m.December 6, 8 @ 8 p.m.
It's the classic battle of the sexes! Let the games begin as this favorite among Mozart comedic masterworks opens the 67th season of Florida Grand Opera. Do you think women are fickle? Mozart leads us to the conclusion "They're all like that!" in this deliciously decadent comedy. Follow the path of romantic twists and turns as two young men are challenged to test the limits of their sweethearts' "fidelity," or perhaps we should say, "infidelity".
