Hydref 2024
Mae Opera Canolbarth Cymru yn ôl ar daith yn yr hydref eleni gydag opera ias a chyffro enwog Leoncavallo ‘Pagliacci’, neu ‘Clowns ‘.
Rian Evans, The Guardian
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“With some fine musical characterisation from the principals as well as those in cameo roles, and a particularly blazing finale to act one, there is a wonderful sense of a defiant upholding of MWO values by artistic director/designer Richard Studer and music director Jonathan Lyness.”
Mae Opera Canolbarth Cymru’n saernïo ac yn perfformio cynyrchiadau cyflawn a chartrefol mewn lleoliadau ledled Cymru a thu hwnt. Rydym yn gweld gwerth anferthol i opera ac yn mynd â chynyrchiadau sy’n ysbrydoli i theatrau a mannau lle mae’r cyfle i weld opera fyw yn brin a lle gellir cyrraedd at gynulleidfaoedd newydd. Rydym yn ymroddedig i feithrin, herio ac annog talent ifanc a ffres, gydag o leiaf 50% o gantorion y cwmni o dan 30 oed neu wedi gorffen eu haddysg o fewn y 4 mlynedd ddiwethaf.
“…a profound understanding of what works, musically and dramatically, and an unshakable commitment to deliver it to the highest standard”

“Berlioz’s Shakespearean opera is stripped to the bone for four instruments and six singers, but the show is slick and spirited, with sopranos Lorena Paz Nieto and Monica McGhee standouts”

“…this show will charm and captivate … Mid Wales Opera has done it again and delivered a corker of a production”

“If you’re not familiar with Montsalvatge, there’s no need to worry, for his wonderfully communicative and comic score (not unlike a panto) is packed with engaging tunes”

“When the lights dimmed for a final time, I wanted to wind back time and play it through all over again. I stood to leave, having been cultured, but also entertained. Having left the present day behind for the duration of the performance. And as I filtered out of the theatre after my first opera experience, I found myself on my phone, googling the next one that I should see.”
