Hear brand-new mini operas created by RCM composers and performed by RCM singers working in association with opera company Tête à Tête.
Each short work draws the audience into a different world, offering a unique opportunity to hear contrasting approaches to opera from these up-and-coming young composers. The programme includes The Anthem by Jasper Eaglesfield, who is also featured in the RCM Philharmonic’s Orchestral Masterworks concert on 18 April, and Fanny and Stella's Last Day Out by Jasper Dommett, whose music was praised in The Scotsman for its ‘crystalline gestures’ and ‘languid lyricism’.
Please note this production contains adult themes and may not be suitable for children.
Produced by the Royal College of Music in association with Tête à Tête.
The performance on Friday 28 June will be live streamed at www.rcm.ac.uk/live
