all hallows day and night of VOICE

Tread lightly, the sisters will waken...

best to not be in the cemetery at all...

do you not hear the maniacal laughter?

Be quick, be quick... oh, 'tis too late!

The trio of witches have stirred back to life, only to find no trick or treat allowed during this time of pandemic.

Curses upon this befouled arousal!

But, soft... could not their youth be restored with scary songs...???

Ortlinde clutches Waltraute's right hand, Gerhilde grabs onto the left hand, and the three cast a spell to make it so!

As soon as the words left their lips, there's Giani!

He's waxing rhapsodic about his love of monster movies, having just watched one and heard Christopher Lee read "The Bride Of Lammermoor".

That's when the sisters realize the power of song to rejuvenate - and what better songs than those of Mozart!!!

But, of course!

Feeling better after a healthy dose of "Don Giovanni", the sisters take their turns at solo numbers to demonstrate their prowess!

 

 

After a quartet performed the "Danse Macabre", a fearsome sight arose: three floating heads mouthing nonsense words about the valley of the king!

Very spooky... and utterly delightful to the sisters three!

Greatly refreshed, and almost back to their youthful visages, they have but one request: more Wolfgang, the darkest of his dark!

And so they were rewarded with the songs of the Stone Visitor as he reprimanded Giovanni for his many misdeeds - oh, yes!

"Dies Irae" from the "Requiem" provided the last few drops of cheek blush and lip rouging that the old girls needed!

Now, they could safely return to their slumbers and await an awakening in another three hundred years, with dreams of children roaming the streets unaware that they were the treats witches seek ... in the Twilight Zoom!

Bwah ha ha ha!!!

Thanks, Savannah VOICE Festival, for this nod to "Hocus Pocus"!

Such great fun... and a treat so sweet that I've indulged twice!

(smile!)
