Teresa Cahill will be delivering a masterclass to the current cast of the Library Opera project.
Library Operas is a new project launched by Artstrust Productions. Its main aim is to increase awareness of, and appreciation for, opera as an artform. In late 2015, we will tour public libraries in the UK with a reduced version of Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin. The project is also provides training and opportunities for young professionals such as singers, producers, production crew, répétiteurs, and language coaches.
Library Operas is organised in partnership with the Music Department, Goldsmiths, the University of London and is currently funded by Artstrust Productions and Arts Council England.
