[Opera Friends @operafriends]

Thank you all at for an absolutely wonderful afternoon yesterday. #TraviataVO was perfect - orchestra, staging, cast - all beautiful ... it was a privilege to be there. Our first visit to @VancouverOpera won’t be our last!

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

Thank you everyone @Opera_North for absolutely stunning #ONSalome @warwickarts last night. Breathtaking performance from @jennhollowaaay ... a treat and a privilege to be there. https://t.co/N9zX5hRWDt

"...raw and very personal. I believe it is actually the most wonderful way to share a story..." — @jennhollowaaay on our concert performance of #ONSalome, @WarwickArts tonight:

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

My goodness that was thrilling! Thanks all for magnificent, grippingly terrifying #ROHTosca tonight. Edge-of-the-seat performances were even more wonderful in glorious cinema close-up. Thank you! @MalteseTenor @GeraldFinley @SimonShibambu @TheRoyalOpera @pieczonka_a

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

@MalteseTenor Hello from Birmingham, England! Loving your performance tonight #ROHTosca

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

Couldn’t agree more! Scared in Birmingham too ... @GeraldFinley @TheRoyalOpera #ROHtosca https://t.co/gItKtj3dCb

[Norwich Opera Club @NorwichOpera]

Wow! Scarpia @GeraldFinley scaring us witless here in Norwich #ROHtosca

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

It’s tonight! Really looking forward to our trip to the cinema later for #ROHTosca ...! https://t.co/V1tyyECvfB

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

... and, as expected, Pagliacci was completely heartbreaking. The orchestra was a delight, @ROHchorus wonderful and the staging just perfect. Thank you all @RoyalOperaHouse #ROHCavPag

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

Couldn’t agree more: Cav was simply wonderful. And we’ve still got Pagliacci to go ... #ROHCavPag https://t.co/kaT8cSAvnt

[Jamie Henderson 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @jsdhenderson]

A thrilling, very moving Cavalleria Rusticana, with - for me - the best Santuzza & Alfio we’ve had in this production, & Hymel in ringing voice. Zilio marvellous. #ROHCavPag

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

Excited to be heading to @RoyalOperaHouse for #rohcavpag thanks to lucky #fridayrush ticket ... https://t.co/r5rzZUvse1

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

Don’t miss @Opera_North Götterdämmerung from tomorrow on @OperaVision_eu - and the whole thing is available online for the next 4 months ... https://t.co/SdqH9xdiiR

[Opera North @Opera_North]

Götterdämmerung Act II becomes available on @OperaVision_eu later today! Here's why you should take on the #ONRing challenge (over Christmas maybe?)...

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

Wonderful #ROHrigoletto @RoyalOperaHouse tonight. V orderly evacuation the instant the last note faded away meant we couldn’t give @MichaelFabiano #dimitriplatanias @LucyCroweSop et al the applause they deserved ... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[Taliesin Arts Centre @TaliesinSwansea]

To all opera lovers - a new opera Thursday in Welsh - don't worry, you can pick it up in English on your mobile phone, either in your ear or displayed (against a black background)

Exquisite Handel is good for the soul, #ENORodelinda didn’t disappoint. Coliseum filled with beautiful notes. Thanks to all @E_N_O @tim_mead

[Opera Friends @operafriends]

On our way ... ! Read all the great reviews for #ENORodelinda, just had to head to @E_N_O to see it for ourselves! @ChristianCurnyn https://t.co/qiISPQDtr3
