MUSIC FOR ALL
YOUR PRIVATE AND CORPORATE EVENTS

Robert Longo and Gabrielle Prata

Music entertains, stirs the senses and turns a meeting or reception into an event. Music can create focus and excitement at a party, or it can provide an aural backdrop for a banquet.

Gabrielle Prata and Bob Longo have created an entertainment company with a difference. Far from being your typical operatic singers, they use their considerable acting abilities, zest, and of course, beautiful voices, to combine musical genres, resulting in a showcase of style and elegance which will appeal to each of your guests. They will provide sumptuous ambiance or a riveting performance of selections to suit your taste.  Performances usually include a quartet of singers and virtuoso pianist, but may be augmented or made more intimate by changing the number of performers and length of program.

At Pragos Entertainment we understand that your event is important. We are committed to working with you to build a program to suit your needs. Let us add a unique touch of elegance and vitality to your function with our world class singers and virtuoso pianist. The variety and range of our music will appeal to each of your guests and make your event a memorable one.

NEW "2-HANDER" SHOW
NOW AVAILABLE FOR BOOKINGS

Gabrielle Prata and Robert Longo

Meet Gabrielle Prata and Robert Longo, internationally acclaimed singers. Of She, the Boston Globe wrote, “So sexy was this Carmen, she managed to seduce the reluctant Don Jose with her hands literally tied behind her back.” Of He, Paula Citron wrote for Opera Canada, “He has the experience, the attractive voice and the matinee-idol good looks to be the perfect leading man. How would the plot read if the seductress and the matinee idol met, fell passionately in love and continued to pursue individual stardom? Say it with Rogers & Hammerstein? Bernstein? Sondheim? Even Mozart and others? What happens when jealousy and regret arrive to meet the family in an apartment above a laundry mat in Manhattan and they finally admit to becoming the parents they swore they’d never be. Can they have it all? Find out in this musical revue show that shares the thrills, spills, trials and tribulations of raising a family while chasing a dream.

Gabrielle and Robert’s “2-hander” show, I’m Not Going Anywhere, Il Concerto Del Destino, directed by David Connolly is available for booking through Carole Barrett, Dean Artists Management, 416.969.7300, carole@deanartists.com
