Developing local opera talent through our Chorus Development Programme with singers selected through open auditions, providing access to our events large and small to our wonderful community, youth and charity partners, reaching new audiences and providing opportunities for young people to access and engage with the transformative power of opera are cornerstones of our work and it's wonderful to be recognised alongside so many incredible international opera companies! We are hugely grateful to our principal funder @artscouncilni, to the @westonfdn the Foyle Foundation, D'Oyly Carte Charitable Trust, the Garrick Club Charitable Trust, Fidelio Charitable Trust and The Friends of Northern Ireland Opera whose support for our artist development, outreach and education programmes is invaluable.
