La Cieca just glimpsed this “save the date” from NYCO’s development department:

New York City Opera’s Spring Gala: An Evening with Deborah Voigt. Celebrated as one of today’s greatest interpreters of the operas of Wagner, Strauss, Verdi, and Puccini, Ms. Voigt is also acclaimed for her winning forays as a performer of Broadway tunes, jazz standards, and popular songs. The historic Central Park Boathouse will set the stage for an unforgettable evening featuring a performance by the magnificent Ms. Voigt – joined at the piano by Tony Award winner Ted Sperling – cocktails, gondola rides on The Lake, a formal dinner, and dancing to the music of Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks.
