Our exciting new project Noye’s Fludde has been to Brecon and Aberystwyth where nearly 250 children and adults from each locality had the chance to take part in Benjamin Britten's fantastic opera. Involving a thousand children across Wales, this celebration of music and life offers something for everyone. For a taste of what's in store if you are participating as an Animal in Treorchy, Newtown or Neath then take a look at this short film on Youtube. For further details click here.
We are very pleased to announce that the Board of Trustees has appointed Rachel Dominy to work alongside Nicholas Cleobury, our Artistic Director, to promote the existing work and realise the future ambitions of the company. To contact Rachel, click here.
Mid Wales Opera is proud to have been picked as ‘2010 best team-effort’ by Rupert Christiansen of The Telegraph ‘for a modestly scaled but crisply executed and entertaining production of Verdi’s Falstaff, a work that even the most celebrated opera house can’t pull off.’ "What is Opera?" Our education project, What is Opera?, offers an introduction to the exciting world of opera. Clare Williams, experienced arts practitioner leads a half-day workshop in which the participants learn how opera can tell a story like no other. To discuss this workshop coming to your school in the future, please contact the MWO office. Auditions for Mozart’s Don Giovanni have now taken place, but if you are interested in auditioning for the company for future productions, please click here for information.
