Opera Gala Concert: Star-crossed Lovers
7th November at 7pm
The phrase “star-crossed lovers”—first coined by Shakespeare —has come to symbolise timeless tales of passion, misunderstanding, and destiny. While often tragic, opera reminds us that love can be equally comic, tender, and unpredictable. Join Rose Opera for an evening of unforgettable music as our soloists, together with pianist Richard Black, explore the many shades of love through opera’s most poignant and playful moments. Expect a fresh and unusual take on the theme, delivered with artistry, emotion, and elegance.
Verdi's Requiem
Saturday 21st February at
Landmark Arts Centre, Teddington
Few works in the choral and orchestral repertoire equal the emotional force of Verdi's Requiem. From the hushed opening prayer, through the thunderous Dies Irea to the soaring heartfelt Libera Me, Verdi transforms the traditional mass for the dead in to a drama of humanity itself - grief, fear, hope and redemption.
This monumental work brings together the power of the opera stage and the depth of sacred music, creating an unforgettable journey from darkness to light.
Join Rose Opera soloists, chorus and orchestra under the baton of Lewis Gaston for an evening of music that both overwhelming in its scale and deeply moving in its intimacy.
