Who says young people don’t enjoy opera? Several performers from the Canadian Opera Company brought The Barber of Seville to life in front of attentive students at Richmond Rose Public School Tuesday. Opera singers Jon-Paul Décosse as Dr. Bartolo, Jesse Clark as Figaro, Michael Barrett as Count Almaviva and Teiya Kasahara as Rosina performed exerpts from the well-known opera, introducing this art form to students who may never have the opportunity to attend such a performance.
