OPERA HIGHLIGHTS 2012
Sat 18th February, 8pm
Four singers and a pianist perform a selection of opera arias.
With weeks of dark nights and cold weather ahead, Opera Highlights has long been a welcome winter warmer for audiences of all ages. It offers something for everyone, from seasoned fans to opera first-timers and promises to bring a glow to your cheeks and put a spring in your step.
Four enthusiastic young singers introduce a mixture of operatic styles, including arias, duets and ensembles from Verdi’s La traviata, Mozart’s Don Giovanni, Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, Bizet’s Carmen as well as less well-known gems by Smetana, Ambroise Thomas, Rimsky-Korsakov and Emmerich Kalman.
This year’s cast is soprano Anita Watson, mezzo-soprano, Rosie Aldridge, tenor Robert Gardiner, baritone Marcus Farnsworth and pianist Susannah Wapshott.
