Events > Stentorphon Opera's Inaugural Gala Concert 21st March

Sunday 21 March 2010, 7.30pm

A new opera company in Bath is hoping to bring opera to a whole new generation of music lovers whilst bringing up-and-coming singers who are starting out on their professional careers to star in their productions.

Stentorphon Opera is a Bath-based repertory company. Australian born soprano and Silver Ring choir conductor, Ruth McKibbin, along with Bath-born promoter and tenor, Michael Smith, aim to feature local performers in addition to London-based artists in a venture that hopes to extend the patronage of opera in Somerset.

Stentorphon is holding its inaugural opera Gala Concert at St Stephen’s Church, Lansdown on Sunday 21st March at 7.30pm in association with the Friends of St Stephen’s. The concert will showcase the singers and musicians featured in the 2010 season and include a programme of favourite arias and ensembles by Mozart, Puccini, Bellini, Wagner, Verdi, Sullivan and Lehar.

Tickets, including the performance and complimentary beverage, are £10 and are available from St Stephen’s Church office.

This event is being held in association with the Friends of St Stephen's Church.
