It started with a festival - three classic operas performed in a theatre in Toronto. But when it became apparent that there was a need for a national opera company, an organization was founded that would go on to become one of the largest performing arts organizations in the country. The Canadian Opera Company was born in 1950, and is now one of the major opera companies in North America. The Company has toured extensively throughout Canada and the United States, and has delighted audiences as far away as Australia and Hong Kong, all the while finding the time to record frequently and develop special operatic presentations for children. More than just a group of performers, the COC also provides a training program for young professional singers, and a series of commissions of new works from both up-and-coming and established composers. Opera Viva is a history of the Company, but it is more than that: it is also a history of Canada’s cultural growth in the second half of the twentieth century, a time when the Canadian Opera Company became central to Canada’s musical life. As the story of the Company unfolds, the figures and personalities that were integral to the building of this landmark of Canadian culture are brought to life.

Per Leo, che ama il mare, vivere è una continua, incerta navigazione. A trentacinque anni sente di avere poche sicurezze e troppe rotte da correggere: la sua e quelle dei suoi alunni. Insegnante alle scuole superiori, ogni santo giorno cerca di condurre in porto sana e salva una classe che a volte gli sembra una flottiglia di zattere improvvisate, destinate a perdersi nella tempesta del proprio tempo. In gergo marinaresco, Leo lo sa bene, l'opera viva è la parte sommersa di un'imbarcazione, quella che lavora con l'acqua per generare il moto, mentre l'opera morta, la parte visibile, è solo il guscio esterno. Ed è convinto che anche nelle persone sia la parte sommersa quella decisiva. Come ogni marinaio, Leo incontra una sirena incantatrice, ma per fortuna - così sostiene lui - riesce a tapparsi le orecchie in tempo. Anche se ha una patente nautica per andare ovunque, preferisce navigare a vista, senza mai lasciarsi troppo andare. Sospetta sia proprio questo a guastare i suoi rapporti con le donne, gli amici, i colleghi, gli alunni... No, con gli alunni no. Anzi, sono loro l'oceano sul quale a volte si distende per riposare e sentirsi vivo. Ma solo un istante, perché è lui a dover tenere strette le cime che gli lanciano dai banchi ed evitare che la sua flottiglia naufraghi. Di naufragi Leo ha grande esperienza, anche sulla terraferma, e ha imparato che un naufragio può insegnare molto, purché si sia pronti a riprendere subito il mare e si abbia qualcuno a cui raccontare lo scampato pericolo. Il mare è un labirinto indifferente che si compone e scompone a ogni istante, ma basta saper cogliere quello giusto per ritrovare la rotta. La navigazione nel mare aperto della vita e l'educazione di ragazzi che della vita devono apprendere tutto; un tema che non cessa di riguardarci ed emozionarci e che si fa ancora più intenso in virtù di una scrittura esatta ed energica come un colpo di remo, nutrita di suggestioni letterarie eppure calata nel quotidiano, attentissima alle persone e alle cose, di cui sa captare e restituire con immediatezza la complessità: asperità e dolcezze, il lato tragico e quello comico, tutta la bellezza che si nasconde appena sotto la superficie.
