Mid-Wales Opera, the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama (RWCMD), and the Academy of Ancient Music are joining forces for a production of Handel's Semele which will tour Wales from 8 February 2016. The cast and orchestra will combine student singers and musicians with professional singers from Mid-Wales Opera and players from the Academy of Ancient Music, including leader Pavlo Beznosiuk. This co-production builds on Mid-Wales Opera and RWCMD's collaboration in 2014 on Handel's Acis and Galatea.
Semele will be directed by Martin Constantine and conducted by Nicholas Cleobury. The production opens at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in Cardiff on 8 February and runs there until 11 February before touring to Newton, Llanelli, Colwyn Bay and Brecon.
See the Mid-Wales Opera website for full tour details.
