During the last week of term, our Year 7 & 8 Choir ‘Surbiton Young Voices’ were very excited to visit the Royal Opera House for a fantastic immersive concert, ‘Everybody Sing The Magic Flute’.
The concert was a special event to launch United Learning’s collaboration with the Royal Opera House on a new project based on Mozart’s opera The Magic Flute.
As part of the project, pupils across the Group have been working with artists from the Royal Opera House to create a unique performance of the famous opera. To promote pupils’ creativity, confidence and collaboration skills, the project has so far seen pupils learn six songs from The Magic Flute to perform at the launch event. Bringing together 1,700 pupils from 53 schools, pupils created a vibrant performance of the opera alongside the Royal Ballet & Opera Orchestra and professional opera singers.
During the Summer Term, a portion of older Senior School vocal pupils will learn the rest of the repertoire to perform at one of three concerts across the country in June and July, alongside several Senior School instrumentalists. The London concert will be held at the Royal Festival Hall.
