SONGS OF LOVE FROM THE OPERA STAGES
We are head over heels with opera, wide eyed for Monteverdi and smitten for Britten. Some of New Zealand’s best singers debut a new show that explores both the triumphs and the heartbreaks of love. Straight from the opera stages comes this romantic tour-de-force involving Carmen, Madame Butterfly, Lucia de Lammermoor and other operatic favourites.
Wild, surprising, jubilant, funny and sometimes disastrous, this story was created and directed by well-known opera director Jacqueline Coats. Through well-loved arias, duets and choruses, the story is being told by a 16-strong Voices ensemble joined on stage by soloists Morag Atchison (Soprano), Catrin Johnsson (Mezzo Soprano), Andrew Grenon (Tenor), and Will King (Bass) accompanied by Rachel Fuller.
Join us for this uplifting concert and you will recognise the songs from L’Orfeo, Dido and Aeneas, Gloriana, The Tales of Hoffman, Lucia di Lammermoor, Carmen, The Merry Widow, Madame Butterfly and more.
You can purchase online or directly from the Opera House Ticket Office between 10am-2pm Mon-Fri.
The box office and the Opera House Cafe & Bar is open 1 hour prior to the show commencing and during interval.
