This weekend is the last of Opera Orlando’s Summer Concert Series called “Opera On Park.”

The intimate setting of the University Club of Winter Park is a unique way to kick off the upcoming season, says Opera Orlando’s David Sckolnik.

He said this series gives audiences an opportunity to really find out about the essence of the art form.

“There’s no costumes, there’s no characters, there’s no orchestra; the artist has to just stand up there and deliver beautiful sounds and connect directly with the listeners,” said Sckolnik.
