Weekend of opera to hit the high notes for charity
On Sunday there will be an evening of opera classics with the Ladies’ Chorus of Opera Cork and the City of Cork Male Voice Choir, who will be joined by four international soloists. This is the fourth year of the event and the emphasis is on light opera in a spectacular setting. Proceeds go to charity.
The acclaimed London-based Garden Opera Company, who presented La Traviata in 2010, provide intimate opera in unconventional spaces including parks, urban areas and period houses. Their ethos is community involvement and accessibility. The operas will be sung in English, and this will be Garden Opera’s only appearance in Ireland this year.
