Mireille Rijavec & Roxanne Classen
Your Special Day
Cabaret
Singer Mireille Rijavec and pianist Roxanne Classen have been performing cabaret together since their 2007 Edmonton Fringe debut Brie, Baguette, and a Broad. Other collaborations include Chat Blanc, a concert theatre piece exploring the life of Erik Satie, and Lost in Montmartre, a cabaret inspired wake for Satie. Cabaret is an intimate gathering place where audiences experience the personal performance of popular song. Mireille and Roxanne also present their unique cabarets for private functions.
Performance Reviews

``But in the end, classical singer Mireille Rijavec is the sublime vocal highlight who helps you get lost in Satie's Paris``
,
``...and mezzo-soprano Mireille Rijavec sang Pie Jesu with warmth and tenderness.``
,
``Mireille Rijavec found the chant deep within her chest in her Pie Jesu solo, producing a strongly devotional feel.``
,
The “opera” (Lee Hoiby's Bon Appétit!), if you can call it that, is dotty and endearing, though I’m a sucker for almost any show with onstage food. … Rijavec was charming and in command of her wits – it can’t have been easy to beat egg whites to a proper peak without missing a beat of the music.
