The evening promises to be an ?enchanted? one indeed as the Bermuda School of Music hosts its ninth annual concert in the ?Some Enchanted Evening ? series tomorrow night.

The event will be held in the Mid Ocean Amphitheatre of the Fairmont Southampton Hotel, and tickets (patrons $100, adults $35, children $15) are now on sale at the School on Trott Road, as well as at Meyer Travel, Pulp & Circumstance, and the Music Box.

In addition to this year?s new venue, organisers have opted for a ?slightly different? format ?to make it more interesting?, according to BSM violin teacher and head of development Chas Arnold. ?Instead of the normal classical concert we are going to try and create a story using music and narration. Artists and instrumentalists will be positioned on either side of the stage, and narrator Ron Lightbourne will be at ground level. The aim is to try and make the concert flow so that it feels like one continuous line of music and narration.?

Getting the evening off to an unusual start will be BSM guitar teacher Stephen Crawford who will perform the opening work in the darkened amphitheatre.

The varied programme will feature a mixture of classical and non-classical music, and include works by Brahms, Bernstein, Chopin, Gershwin, Gardel, Halvorsen and Verdi.

?There will be everything from excerpts from the opera ?La Traviata? to the musical ?Porgy and Bess?, and Spanish composer Carlos Gardel?s ?Por Una Cabeza? ? music used in the film ?The Scent of a Woman?,? Mr. Arnold said.

Among the participating artists and musicians are BSM faculty members Jennifer Sheridan (violin), David

David France (violin), Lisa Hollis (viola) and Sarah Danby (cello), who will perform as a quartet. Guest artists are: viola player Karen O?Brien from the Menuhin Foundation, Bermudian singer Joy Barnum, and visiting singers, soprano Ariana Wyatt and tenor Timothy Fallon, from the Juilliard Opera Center in New York City.

The concert will also mark the final performance in Bermuda of Miss Danby who, after six years on the Island, is leaving with husband-to-be and fellow BSM faculty member Nick Curror, who has been here for three years.

In addition to performing as an accompanist (along with fellow BSM faculty pianists Ryal Ellis and Olga Zeidel) Mr. Curror will perform two solo pieces, one each by Rachmaninov and Gershwin.
