Catch them Young

Most kids of 6 or 7 years of age have no experience of opera first hand and the Rhapsody workshop is a fantastic and fun way to introduce it to them.

There is nothing heavy or serious about this. Lasting about 40 minutes, with a themed approach using exciting operatic scenes and arias, we explore how a story, costumes, props and music combined affect our senses and entertain us.

The children learn some musical phraseology and put this into practice themselves singing well known nursery rhymes or school songs and putting into practice what they have learned through the workshop. They are educated, involved and entertained throughout and come away with something to tell mum when they get home and hopefully a little more.
