Mazda Opera in the Bowl 2019
See some opera under the stars — entirely for free.
Overview
Back in 2018 for its 13th instalment, Opera Australia's popular Mazda Opera in the Bowl returns to the Sidney Myer Music Bowl for a wonderful night of opera under the stars on the last night of spring — and it's absolutely free.
Featuring some of Australia's top vocal talent in sopranos Stacey Alleaume and Artist Anna-Louise Cole, mezzo-soprano Anna Dowsley, tenor Walter Fraccaro and baritone José Carb, Opera in the Bowl will have you whistling along to famous tunes you didn't even know you knew.
Gather the crew (and your trusty picnic basket) and settle in for a night of some of opera's most famous and most beautiful moments. But don't worry if you don't actually own a picnic basket — a whole heap of the city's best food trucks will be there cooking up a storm and the garden bar will be slinging all sorts of cusp-of-summer drinks.
As for the soundtrack, songs from William Tell and Carmen will entertain you, whether you're an opera aficionado or you don't know Bellini from a bellini. If nothing else, it's a perfect cheap date idea.
