Opera Highlights to visit Dunblane

Dunblane’s Victoria Hall will be a stopping-off point for Scottish Opera’s much-loved Opera Highlights in the spring.

Setting off with a brand-new show, four singers and a pianist journey to 18 venues across Scotland from Ayrshire to the Western Isles with a visit to Dunblane on Thursday, March 14.

Sara Brodie directs a programme of works by composers from across the centuries from Handel and Gluck to Mozart, Verdi, Britten and Bernstein, carefully curated by Scottish Opera’s Head of Music Derek Clark.

Scottish Opera Emerging Artist 2018/19 soprano Lucy Anderson, mezzo-soprano Heather Ireson; tenor Tom Smith and baritone Harry Thatcher join Music Director/Pianist Elizabeth Rowe to bring to life some of opera’s best-known arias alongside hidden gems and forgotten favourites.
