The word conjures up vi- sions of great theatres, elaborate produc- tions and long winded musical tragedies that appeal to a small segment of the world's music fans. Opera is perhaps one of the most misunderstood forms of music. It is stereotyped as boring and hard to follow. In recent years however, opera stars like Lu- ciano Pavorotti, Beverly Sills and Placido Domingo, have brought opera to the masses. More and more people are learning about this special form of music. Huron County also has its own opera star and she is bringing her exceptional talents to the Blyth Memorial Hall on Sunday, April 21 for an afternoon concert. Renee Stalenhoef Van Haarlem has per- formed in theatres throughout Europe, in Canada and the United States. She sang at the opera house in Holland for 12 years and took part in more than 800 performances in France, Germany and Holland. She sang the soprano role in the preview concerts for the Canadian Opera Company production Anna Bolena, and understudied for Dame Joan Sutherland in the main production. Today Renee makes her home north of Auburn on a dairy farm with her husband Walter. The couple have been married four years and are expecting their first child this summer. Renee has lived a glamorous, interna- tional life as a premier Dutch songstress. Today she chooses a rural lifestyle in Canada. The pace here may be slower than Renee was accustomed to during her years on the stage, but it's no less productive or dull.• "Farm life is busy and concentrated. It's amazing how occupied you are with book- keeping to stay well informed on the farm" a noted. Renee is still pursuing her career but at ter own pace. She manages to combine life o;1 the farm and life on the stage, and is anx- iously awaiting to include life as a mother. "The baby changes everything again. But what's life worth, but bringing your own • flesh and blood into the world." Still the change in lifestyle seems so drastic. Renee agrees, but she's happy. "When you've done that much work for a long period of time, you,need a change...I've' had such beautiful experiences, glamor in :Holland, but after a while, it's not impor- tant. Now I want the very basics of life." Renee and Walter honeymooned in Canada in 1981. Walter had worked in Canada 10 years earlier and the Niagara Falls vacation confirmed that this was the • country where they wanted to live. ' "He saw the new world here," Renee ex- plained of her husband's desire to live in Canada. While the opera houses of.:Europe may be thousands of miles away,Renee has not abandoned her singing career. She still has a busy schedule and now finds the time to "refill her battery."

She will sing a concert of mixed songs by Schubert, Rossini, Poulenc and Leonard Bernstein and will be accompanied by pianist Marion Miller and flautist Fiona Wilkinson, both of London,. Renee and her musicians stress that the concert is designed to appeal of people of all musical tastes. - Renee describes the concerts as a "spring show. A lyrical show when everything starts to blossom again." "Opera has nothing to do with this show," she stressed. "There's only one opera aria. The others are classical songs." And what of the language barriers? Renee speaks and sings in six languages - Dutch, English, German, French, Spanish and Italian. The key to understanding and ap- preciating the music is to go beyond the words - to feel the emotional impact of the song. Renee uses her operatic strength to in- fluence the music and communicate a com- plete story to the audience. Through timing voice tone, volume and expression she emir municates a musical message., "Music comes out of an iron box nowadays. People who express themselves are becoming rare," she noted. The voice, Renee explains, is a musical in- strument, "You must learn how to mold the body and voice together. There should be the right connection between the body and the sound." As a trio, Renee, Marion and Fiona have worked to create a "light and beautiful per- formance," Renee described. The songs are about love - love lost and won. The perfor- mance promises to offer a wide range of musical emotions, uplifting and moving, humorous and lighthearted. The concert has been in the works for just over a year. In that time the three per- formers have worked together to become at- tuned to the music and their emotional response to it. Fiona describes the rehearsal process as "intimate." Marion and Fiona use their instruments to illustrate the emotions of the music, together the trio combines talents to create an ensemble presentation. Marion and Fiona are accomplished mus' cians. They teach music at the University Western Ontario. As well, Marion is a keyboard plalyer with the London .Sym-. phonia and Fiona performs with the London Concert Players. As a trio, Renee, Marion and Fiona plan to ;,resent an eclectic program in Blyth, one that will appeal to a new audience. The concert will take place on Sunday, April 21 at 2 p.m. Tickets are on sale at the Blyth Box Office or can be reserved by call- ing 523-9300 or 523-9225.
