Opera, Flamenco and Blues share the stage in a special concert sponsored by Dave's Killer Bread.
Portland, OR – Troupe DeVille, a musical group blending opera, flamenco and blues, are returning to the Old Church on June 10th for a special concert.
Three international artists steal the stage together, breathing humor, life, and wit into the audacious collaboration between the opera, flamenco, and blues. Award-winning classical/flamenco guitarist Andre Feriante, world-class opera singer Steve Thoreson and blues powerhouse Eric Fridrich will each offer their solo performances then gradually weave them into a new and inventive sound.
Troupe DeVille takes you for a thrilling ride through three artistically passionate life stories that are told with music and words. They are being sponsored by Portland-based Dave's Killer Bread, whose equally unique story and personality inspired the troupe, while being one of their biggest supporters.
“Feriante blends classical and flamenco guitar in a manor guaranteed to warm the hardest of hearts”

“Thoreson's voice rivals that of Pavarotti but with more grace and subtlety”
-CitySearch, AOL Online
“Eschews the norm, defying genre, Fridrich's voice brings an understated power”
-Tom Barile, Chicago Arts & Entertainment.
