Windmills on Lake Street

In June of 2025, Mixed Precipitation presented a mini pop-up opera performance in June. This new work-in-progress featured Baritone Mark Billy and a suite of tunes inspired by Don Quixote, including music by Maurice Ravel and Ruperto Chapí y Lorente.

Mixed Precipitation collaborated with choreographer Colette Illarde and dancer Amanda Dlouhy of Zorongo Flamenco. Instrumentals Ben Abrahamson on guitar and Jason Kornelis on cello mixed art song and Spanish Zarzuela. Performers Maje Adams, Barbara Berlovitz, Ariel Donahue, Jada Windom, and the Zorongo Student Performance Company brought the stories and poetry to life.

WHERE WE PERFORMED:

  • Saturday, June 7th at 10 am and 11:30 am at the Midtown Farmers Market
  • Wednesday, June 11th at 7:30 at Arbeiter Brewing. Outdoor performance will take place on the north side of Moon Palace Books.

These performances are supported by Lake Street Lift, a program funded by Lake Street Council and the Graves Foundation. We’re grateful to celebrate and share art in this wonderful neighborhood.
