Opera 101

Three BLO Artists are performing The Barber of Seville in a school. A tall blond woman on the left wears a striped apron. To the right, a man gently embraces a woman in a pink dress and their mouths are open in song. Darkened heads and sholders of kids sitting on the floor can be seen in the foreground.

BLO Artists perform in our Artist Classroom Visit: The Barber of Seville.

Introduce your students to opera as a story-telling art through our Artist Classroom Visit: Opera 101, an interactive performance available for grades 2-12. Learn how we bring the story of an opera to life through music, acting, and movement. In this dynamic, one-hour presentation, two professional singers, a pianist, and a teaching artist engage audiences in this interactive introduction to opera.

Artist Classroom Visits are currently offered in February and used to introduce opera to students engaging in our year-long Create Your Own Opera Partnership. For more information, Contact Us!
