Good humor, superior singing, and camaraderie are the primary goals of the young professional soloists who form the core of the Light Opera Company of Southern Maryland, Inc. The company, the brainchild of local singer and voice teacher Dr. Sandra Jarrett, aims to provide a performing opportunity for professional classical singers and musicians residing in southern Maryland who otherwise must travel to Annapolis, Washington, Baltimore - or further - to perform professionally. At the same time, the company hopes to bring light opera to southern Maryland, with the performance of one opera or operetta each summer, and outreach performances throughout the Tri-County area during the rest of the year.
