The highly popular series of the sensational Popera Classics Collection outdoor

for a spectacular outdoor concert where an extraordinary grand cast of ten
renowned singers share their vocal talents, singing gorgeous melodies from the
world of opera, musical theatre and modern Popera classics against the
spectacular sunset of the Broadbeach foreshore.
“Broadbeach audiences have become fanatical with these concerts since we first
introduced them to the phenomenon of Popera three years ago. Since then,
Broadbeach Alliance have invited Popera Classics Collection to perform several
different and contrasting productions for Opera in the Park and are now once
again presenting another first and exclusive when Popera Grande Montage takes to
the stage at Broadbeach with a grand Popera concert and the Collection’s largest
concert to date produced especially for Broadbeach Alliance and Opera in the
Park” says show co-producer, Gregory Brown.
“Popera Grande Montage brings together ten of the finest voices to perform a
spectacular journey of music in a show that is sure to awaken the senses and
touch the soul with a montage of highlights from classical to music theatre and
modern Popera hits. Something for absolutely everyone”, he says.
Popera Grande Montage includes; the finest classical moments such as Libiamo nel
Caliti, O Sole Mio, Sempre Libera and Nessun Dorma to the best of Musical

Mia, The Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables to more contemporary Popera
hits including A Mi Manera (My Way), I Believe in You, Il Mio Cuore Va (My Heart
Will Go On), This is the Moment and You Raise Me Up.
