We bring opera and live music to schools and introduce the amazing and beautiful art of vocal virtuosity alongside basic musicianship accessible to all in a way that children can understand and relate to. Many people mistakenly think of opera as inaccessible and unreliable. We begin by blowing these misunderstanding out of the water and engaging the children with plots, stories and facts that spur their imaginations and inspire them to greater aspirations. Children come away from an Opera’sCool! workshops having shed the idea that opera is ‘scary’ or ‘boring’ and literally leave singing the praises of opera in their own dramatic interpretations.
“”What have you done to my son? He’s inspired!”
(Parent quote, Codicote Primary School)
Using scenes from a variety of operas as well as offering full productions on a small but highly energised scale, we involve the children in the journey of discovering their stories and the wonderful music. We make this style of music and area of performing arts accessible to all, and fantastic fun.
