Cove Laguna
In September of 2019, Salastina premiered Vid Guerrerio’s English modernization of Bach’s hilarious — and hilariously outdated — Coffee Cantata. This December, Salastina teams up with Opera Laguna to present Bach's comic oratorio about coffee addiction with a modern, English adaptation by the incomparably witty Vid Guerrerio. This event is suitable for children ages 10 and up.
