If you want to find out more about the operas you are listening to then opera singer Helen Astrid (formerly with English National Opera) is giving a series on the last Tuesday in each month in Teddington starting Tuesday 25 September 2018.
Helen will use recorded music and visual aids interspersed with group discussions and simple analysis, to take opera from the birth of opera in Italy during the late-Renaissance through to modern and contemporary opera.
Each session will focus on a different aspect of operatic history and by the end of the evening, you will have a more in-depth understanding, knowledge and enjoyment about opera!
Dates: 25 September | 30 October | 27 November 7.30[m-9.00pm
Tickets: £15 or £38 all three. Includes Wine Reception.
Venue: St Mary's Parish Hall, Langham Road, Teddington, London Borough of Richmond-upon-Thames, TW11 9HF.
