About Opera Highlights

A troupe of talented singers embark on a journey of discovery, bringing an original piano-accompanied production to your doorstep this Spring.

With music meticulously curated by Scottish Opera’s Head of Music Derek Clark, Opera Highlights combines repertoire favourites with lesser-known pieces.

The cast includes Scottish Opera Emerging Artist baritone Colin Murray, soprano Holly Teague, mezzo-soprano Annie Reilly and tenor Andrew Henley. Director Emma Jenkins and designer Janis Hart bring imagination, verve and creativity to the tour. With music from The Magic Flute, The Marriage of Figaro and The Pearl Fishers and many more, you will not find such a treasure trove of opera anywhere else!

'The whole experience was a unique privilege. Neither of us has ever experienced an operatic evening like this. The singers were brilliant, and the intimate setting allowed us to marvel at the acting skills.' - Audience member in Cullivoe, Shetland
