Sydney Opera House Fleming Drummond Lloyd Foster Lisa Gasteen Gaetano Donizetti Dvořák Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Australian Opera Sydney Chamber Opera 2015
Renee Fleming — who has won four Grammy awards and is regarded as America’s leading soprano — conducted a master class at the Sydney Opera House for three emerging Australian opera singers, Sarah Ampil, Zoe Drummond and Elizabeth Lewis. They are joint recipients of the 2015 Sydney Opera House Opera Award, which offers young, emerging singers mentoring by internationally renowned artists. Creating opportunities for the next generation is a vital part of the Sydney Opera House’s Decade of Renewal. Whether this is through the Opera Award, the MADE scholarship for architecture, engineering and design students, or the Lloyd Martin Travelling Scholarship for arts administrators, brilliant opportunities for many are made possible by the generosity of Sydney Opera House donors. The Opera Award springs from the generosity of the estates of the late Joy Lindsay and the late Colin Foster. The three participants for the 2015 Opera Award were nominated by: renowned Australian soprano Lisa Gasteen AO; the Sydney Conservatorium of Music; and the Melba Opera Trust. Sarah Ampil, Soprano, performing ‘Prendi, per me sei libero’ from L'elisir d'amore by Gaetano Donizetti Zoe Drummond, Soprano, performing ‘Měsíčku na nebi hlubokém’ (Song to the Moon) from Rusalka by Antonin Dvořák Elizabeth Lewis, Mezzo Soprano, performing ‘Porgi, amor, qualche ristoro’ from Le nozze di Figaro by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The singers were accompanied on the piano by Jack Symonds, Artistic Director, Sydney Chamber Opera.
Gerolamo Gambling Mitchell Sheldon Fraser Andrew Goodwin Rowan Schack Arnott Cox Maas Belling Sydney Chamber Opera 2017
SYNOPSIS Biographica is an odyssey of maverick Renaissance genius Gerolamo Cardano, whose lust for gambling propelled him on to a precarious path between risk and calculated madness in a quest for fame, wealth and the ultimate prize – immortality. Cardano was a magnificent and eccentric Renaissance mind who wrote the first texts on the mathematics of gambling and cheating, was a world-renowned surgeon, revolutionised complex numbers and was a pioneer of sign language. Prolific inventor, flawed father, solitary, aggressive and peculiar, he was a man who listened to guardian angels, swore by science and dreamed of defeating time. Interspersed with the music are monologues spoken by Cardano, where he addresses the audience with accompanying music. These are the lessons and aphorisms he wrote in an attempt to secure his place in history. They capture the beginning of individualism, a time when the world was taking a terrifying ascent in thought and complexity. They reveal to us a soul deeply human and magnificent in imagination. Biographica traces a febrile moment in time; a moment in history when the world of fact and the world of the soul were intermeshed; when science meant leaps of faith, and leaps of faith held great terrors for the soul.

Sydney Chamber Opera Jacobs Sheldon Kronenberg
The Howling Girls is the new work by Sydney Chamber Opera, created by director Adena Jacobs, composer Damien Ricketson and soprano Jane Sheldon; featuring a chorus of teenage girls from The House that Dan Built. ‘This work uses cutting-edge sound technology to create a score unlike any other opera. It is quite primal in accessing the range of sounds that we make: everything from breathing, wailing and choking to very refined singing…Audiences will be astonished at this sublime aural and perceptual encounter.’ Jack Symonds, Artistic Director, Sydney Chamber Opera MORE INFO: (http•••) Carriageworks has commissioned a three-part series documenting the development of this unique work. Each video will be released in the weeks leading up to the opening of the season on March 28.
