Edinburgh
Opera Caledonia is Scotland’s newest professional opera company presenting
concerts, recitals & events and attracting international artists to collaborate
with and perform alongside the wonderful musicians we have in Scotland whilst
showcasing all that Scotland has to offer as a country and an artistic platform.
Opera Caledonia is passionate about introducing opera to new audiences alongside
regular supporters of the art form, believes that opera should be accessible to
a large demographic and aims to break the elitist and exclusive stereotype
associated with opera. The next generation of opera singers is as important to
Opera Caledonia as the professionals of today. Providing young singers with the
opportunity to learn from leading industry professionals is integral to Opera
Caledonia’s vision for music in Scotland. Opera Caledonia has already
collaborated with artists such as Armenian Soprano Anush Hovhannisyan (recent
engagements include Opera de Paris, The Royal Opera House Covent Garden & Welsh
National Opera) and Italian conductor/pianist Maestro Leonardo Catalanotto
(recent engagements include Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino & Teatro
Massimo Bellini) alongside artists from Scottish Opera, English Touring Opera
and The Royal Scottish National Orchestra amongst others.
