  • Project Tosca Overview
    PROJECT TOSCA OVERVIEW Project Tosca is a large, ambitious project in which Opera Queensland will work with seven Queensland communities to find and train local performers for a 2020 tour of Tosca. Tosca is an opera by Giacomo Puccini, which premiered 120 years ago in Rome. The story follows the powerful Tosca, a famous opera singer who is devoted to the painter Cavaradossi but Scarpia, the tyrannical Chief of Police, has his own plans for her. What ensues is a gripping tale of lust, betrayal and cold-blooded murder that careens at breakneck pace. The production is set in 1970 Italy and takes a step back into a world of iconic style and lush glamour at a time of dramatic political and social change. Opera Queensland stars Antoinette Halloran, Rosario La Spina and José Carbó shine alongside the Company’s Principal Artists, Community Chorus and Queensland Symphony Orchestra Ensemble, conducted by Dane Lam. Aspiring performers from seven communities – Cairns, Townsville, Mackay, Rockhampton, Gladstone, Toowoomba and Gold Coast – will have the opportunity to audition for a coveted spot. During Project Tosca, around 400 successful applicants will participate in a program of free professional training in singing, stagecraft and Italian language skills before taking to the stage in their local theatres alongside Queensland’s best singers and with the support of an ensemble of musicians from the Queensland Symphony Orchestra. Auditions to find 40 adult and 16 children chorus members in each community will occur throughout March, April and May 2020, with Tosca regional tour commencing on Saturday 8 August in Cairns and closing at the Gold Coast on Saturday 29 August.

  • Grand Finale for 3 Years Work Opera Australia with Crown Resorts Foundation and Parramatta Park Present the Western Sydney Community Choirs
    MEDIA RELEASE – MARCH 2015 Grand Finale for 3 Years Work Opera Australia with Crown Resorts Foundation and Parramatta Park present the Western Sydney Community Choirs Nearly 300 singers from all across west and south-west Sydney will share the stage at The Crescent, Parramatta Park on March 15 to celebrate the culmination of their journey which began with Opera Australia in 2012. The Community Choirs project is an initiative to give amateur singers access to professional conductors and venues to improve their craft and deepen their understanding of opera. The project has seen the formation of the Western Sydney Community Choirs, which have gone on to perform at the Sydney Opera House in 2012 and 2014. The third and final performance will bring the talents of the Western Sydney Community Choirs closer to home with a one-off, free concert at Parramatta Park. Along with Penrith Symphony Orchestra, the near 300-strong Choir from 13 communities will perform a night of opera hits under the stars. This significant free public performance in Western Sydney has been enabled through a grant from the Crown Resort’s Foundation’s Western Sydney Arts Initiative, in recognition of the valuable outcomes that Opera Australia’s Community Choir program achieves. Opera Australia’s Simon Kenway has been the conductor of the Western Sydney Community Choirs since its inception and will lead the choirs on the night along with four guest artists from Opera Australia - Ayse Göknur Shanal (Soprano), Sian Pendry (Mezzo), Rosario La Spina (Tenor) and Shane Lowrencev (Baritone). “Originally, the Communities Choirs project was about improving access to opera and providing a free mechanism for singers to improve their skills under professional tuition,” says Simon.

    Annual Report 2018–19 3 Introduction 5 Metropolitan Opera Board of Directors 6 Season Repertory and Events 14 Artist Roster 16 The Financial Results 20 Our Patrons On the cover: Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes a bow after his first official performance as Jeanette Lerman-Neubauer Music Director PHOTO: JONATHAN TICHLER / MET OPERA 2 Introduction The 2018–19 season was a historic one for the Metropolitan Opera. Not only did the company present more than 200 exiting performances, but we also welcomed Yannick Nézet-Séguin as the Met’s new Jeanette Lerman- Neubauer Music Director. Maestro Nézet-Séguin is only the third conductor to hold the title of Music Director since the company’s founding in 1883. I am also happy to report that the 2018–19 season marked the fifth year running in which the company’s finances were balanced or very nearly so, as we recorded a very small deficit of less than 1% of expenses. The season opened with the premiere of a new staging of Saint-Saëns’s epic Samson et Dalila and also included three other new productions, as well as three exhilarating full cycles of Wagner’s Ring and a full slate of 18 revivals. The Live in HD series of cinema transmissions brought opera to audiences around the world for the 13th season, with ten broadcasts reaching more than two million people. Combined earned revenue for the Met (box office, media, and presentations) totaled $121 million. As in past seasons, total paid attendance for the season in the opera house was 75%. The new productions in the 2018–19 season were the work of three distinguished directors, two having had previous successes at the Met and one making his company debut.
