This particular Opera Singer performs in an alleyway at Post and Maiden Lane. Seems the big building has very good acoustic quality that projects his voice very nicely throughout the alley.
The Opera House in Tbilisi, Georgia. The street was closed after the parade to allow people to walk around.
The city fell asleep and dreams of opera.
The tears of Verdi, the art of Mozart, the laughs of Rossini.
Sounds, voices, lives, images, costumes, lights so far from everyday reality.
La ville s'est assoupie et rêve d'opéra.
Les larmes de Verdi, l'art de Mozart, les rires de Rossini.
Et ces sons, voix, vies, images, costumes si éloignées de la réalité du quotidien.
The opera house reflecting on a car, Bratislava.

Coldwater, MI
Because Coldwater was on the main railway between Detroit and Chicago, news traveled from cities where entertainment and cultural activities were already well established. As an area with plenty of lakes and forested parks, Coldwater also attracted city folk as a resort destination.[2] In 1882, when the theatre was built, Coldwater was a day's trip from either Detroit or Chicago, which resulted in Coldwater's becoming a natural stopping point for visitors and theatre performers traveling the byway. Accordingly, Coldwater residents developed a strong interest in art, culture, and literature.[citation needed]
Barton S. Tibbits, the mayor of Coldwater at the time, accepted a challenge to build an opera house in Coldwater. Art Gallery owner H.C. Lewis first proposed that he and Tibbits fund and build an opera house in response to pressure from local newspapers. Each man raised $8,000 for the venture, but Lewis soon backed down.[3] Tibbits forged ahead alone, saying he would "build an opera house if it 'bust' my factory", referring to his cigar business in town.[4]
Tibbits was described by Dennis Vanes, who later owned the opera house, as "the greatest 'pusher' in Michigan" adding that "Mr. Tibbits was a hustler by nature, broad minded and liberal and always ready to help the needy and suffering. He was outspoken in his sentiments and sometimes gave offense where none was intended."[5]
