BK Opera

No sets. No props. No microphones. Just beautiful music and amazing singers.

On Saturday, we celebrated our 1st birthday. So proud of all we accomplished in 2017, and can't wait to show you what's planned for 2018!

Looking forward to everything @OperaAustralia, @VictorianOpera, @MelbourneOpera, @BK_Opera, @A_C_O, @LyricOperaMelb and @IOperaAus. Sometimes it seems like there’s never enough but the city sure has a broad variety of options.

[OperaChaser @OperaChaser]

Addressing Mozart’s Don Giovanni, the importance of sexual consent and the respectfulness of boundaries during intimacy play a key role and bring much to the table in @BK_Opera’s latest adaptation. My thoughts @arts_review:

REVIEW: An #opera in five parts, #TheSea is an exciting new collaboration between Forest Collective & @BK_Opera that looks at love & the abuse of love through patriarchy, trauma & the imbalance of power.

Certainly looks eerie enough on this wet and dark evening for @BK_Opera’s The Lighthouse, in a Melbourne premiere of composer and librettist Peter Maxwell Davies 1979 chamber opera.

[OperaChaser @OperaChaser]

Next Thurs 8th Sept, @BK_Opera’s The Lighthouse opens in @Melbourne’s inner north @morelandcouncil’s Brunswick Mechanics Institute. And now there’s that mounting thrill I recognise of a first time experience with an opera previously unknown to me. https://t.co/yrueqm4wcs

Scaled down on a shoestring, Melbourne’s @BK_Opera brings the tragedy home in Puccini’s La bohème. My review: https://t.co/mtisTFVank

[BK Opera @BK_Opera]

⭐⭐⭐⭐ "La Boheme is a blast!" - https://t.co/r8LEZjzC5G

[OperaChaser @OperaChaser]

Sung with passion and delivered on a shoestring, @BK_Opera’s La Boheme is a little ragged but it’s a stark reminder that operatic storytelling exists on so many scales. Not an ounce of snobbery to be seen here. Oh, and Belinda Dalton is a superbly cast Mimi well worth the ticket.

[OperaChaser @OperaChaser]

Back in Melbourne with more Puccini coming up tomorrow night courtesy of @BK_Opera with La bohème, presented in the city’s hyper-hip north at Northcote’s Wesley Anne, a venue I’m eager to see too. https://t.co/3uSZdUFmn4

La Boheme Opens Tonight! - https://t.co/agxHaSkoD1

[OperaChaser @OperaChaser]

This might very well be what constitutes my opera plans for the rest the year. There’s broad scale appeal to dive into with @SFOpera, @VictorianOpera, @GertrudeOpera’s Yarra Valley Opera Festival, @LAOpera, @BK_Opera, @OperaAustralia and @pinchgut.

[OperaChaser @OperaChaser]

Two music stands, a background screen and two strong performances from Michael Lampard and Zara Barrett. That, and Kym Dillon’s electronically manipulated and reimagined score brought a flood of mystery, chills and tension in Bartók’s Bluebeard’s Castle for @BK_Opera. Nice work!

[OperaChaser @OperaChaser]

Let’s go and open a few doors. Or shall we leave that to Judith? Coming up at Howler @morelandcouncil’s Brunswick, Béla Bartók’s Bluebeard’s Castle courtesy of @BK_Opera. And it starts with “Mister Dog” from Little Golden Books? Gotta think on this one.

[BK Opera @BK_Opera]

@OperaChaser @morelandcouncil That's great to hear! We're excited to perform it one last time in a concert setting.

[BK Opera @BK_Opera]

Come and see what all the fuss is about in our last concert performance of Bluebeard's Castle, Thursday 8th August at 8pm.
