THE EDGE and The NBR New Zealand Opera have joined forces to offer this amazing outreach opportunity for adults!

The following initiative has been created with our current opera, Xerxes, in mind. So whether you're a passionate singer who wants to experience the full four-element package of Opera: A to Z, or you desire a more leisurely approach by just attending Inside View - this programme has it covered.

George Frideric Handel's Xerxes is baroque opera at its very finest. Here is your chance to sing selected Handel choruses with a group of like-minded singers.

The NBR NZ Opera's Associate Conductor and Chorus Master, John Rosser, will instruct and inspire you for a full afternoon as you rehearse the pieces, supported by members of the Chapman Tripp Opera Chorus. A few days later, attend the Inside View seminar before undertaking an exclusive backstage tour with the opera’s technical staff, then sing your rehearsed choruses on stage at the Civic Theatre. And for the finale, a ticket to the opera, Xerxes, is included. Being a trained singer is not essential, but an ability to sing in tune is desirable. Suitable for ages 15 and up.
