GLASSHOUSE PORT MACQUARIE AND THE CONSERVATORIUM MID NORTH COAST PRESENTS OPERA AUSTRALIA CHILDREN’S CHORUS

Experience the magic of a curtain call… The 2021 Regional Children’s Chorus program will give 24 children aged between 9 and 14 years in the Port MacquarieHastings region the chance to perform as the Chorus in Opera Australia’s touring regional production, to be announced January 2021. Children will audition and then train with a local choir leader. On the day of the performance, children rehearse onstage with the professional cast and orchestra, then perform in costume that night. Side by side with some of Opera Australia’s finest singers, the Children’s Chorus will feel the magic of live theatre performance. Through the rehearsal and performance process, children also gain a wider understanding of opera, which we hope sparks interest in future artistic pursuits. Education at Glasshouse 2021 TERM 2
