Welcome to
Somerset Opera
Somerset Opera's production of
EUGENE ONEGIN
needs you!
Floor & Music Rehearsal Schedules posted - follow link to 'Auditions & Rehearsals'
The production will be lead by a quartet of young soloists and we're looking for any singers - especially those between 18-30 years - who would like to be involved in the chorus. According to Pushkin, who wrote the poem on which this story is based, Onegin is only 23 when he lectures Tatyana on his reasons for rejecting her. The story is a passionate one, including the ultimate love letter scene, a duel between friends and a tragic figure who travels the world looking for meaning in life. The show will be directed by Sebastian Petit and the Music Director will be Chris Ball.

SomersetOpera has a policy of casting roles within the society if we can. But we run open auditions and welcome new members from Somerset and beyond, so please get in touch - we'd be delighted to hear you. For budding and seasoned professionals, we welcome your CVs but would only be able to pay more than basic expenses in exceptional circumstances. Our main opera production each year is invariably performed in full costume, with orchestra. If you are looking to perform a particular role in a friendly environment, whilst striving for the highest possible standard, please do get in touch. We can generally arrange accommodation for those travelling from distance.
When auditioning please bring a prepared piece to sing.
