It's exciting to hear that Duchy Opera's youngest singer, Becky Scamp,
has been accepted to sing in the 'National Youth Training Choir South'. 

The NYCGB is the family of choirs for outstanding young singers, and those with outstanding potential in the UK. It is comprised of eight choirs for young people between the ages of 8 and 25.

She will be on a residential course in Reading at Easter ending  with a concert at Coventry Cathedral.

The Summer residential course will be in Truro School with the concert at the end of the week being held in Truro Cathedral on Saturday 15th August,

0 Comments

 
On November 29th we are holding a Masterclass in Truro School Chapel. It will be led by Richard Jackson, and will be an opportunity for singers of all voices to work on the performance and interpretation of their own selected pieces, whether for audition, as preparation for recitals or just as a learning experience. Richard has many years' experience of working with singers in Opera, Lieder and Classical English song at many levels at establishments such as the Royal College of Music. Currently he is directing our opera The Elixir of Love. This is a great opportunity to gain from his knowledge and skills, and to enhance your performance.

Entry fee £20 half hour session - two prepared pieces  - and observation of the whole day's masterclasses. Observers will be welcome at £5. For more details please Contact Us.

Duchy Opera has a busy and active educational programme, and we are looking for University and College level students who are interested in youth and school work, who may want to get involved in our successful School Run outreach team. If this sounds like you, please email [email protected] for further details.
We also welcome contact from students interested in behind-the-scenes creative roles, such as costume and set design, photography etc. In 2010 we worked with UCF photography student David Maynard and Tremough dance student Meghan Carney, and in 2011 we worked with UCF graduate, Ami Grinstead on costumes for The Vampire production.

Opera productions offer a wealth of opportunities for students to gain experience in the performing arts, so please feel free to contact us for further information.
