SEASON 2008
Gold Coast City Choir’s major performance of Opera Pops 2
Saturday 26 July, 2008
Paradise Showroom, Gold Coast Arts Centre
Opera Pops was a huge hit for the Gold Coast City Choir in 2006. It featured big
operatic hits from well-known local soloists supported by the talented and
diverse voices of the Gold Coast City Choir. These songs were not just sung –
they were performed using flamboyant costumes, exciting choreography and perfect
props. Feature musicians also added their own magical touch.
All this resulted in huge accolades and calls for an encore performance.
And an encore there shall be
with Opera Pops 2!
This time it shall be performed in the Paradise Showroom at the Gold Coast Arts
Centre, July 26 2008, and same core elements will be in place:
• great operatic numbers that people know and love,
• fabulous local soloists and musicians
• dramatic choral sounds from the Gold Coast City Choir (60 strong voices from
the local community)
• choreography, costumes, comedy and dramatic performance
• all directed and conducted by the talented Ruth Gurner.
So come along for a night of wonderful music, performance, culture and fun that
will quench your thirst for a great night out. No doubt, it’ll leave audiences
calling for more (enter plans for Opera Pops 3 …)
