First encounter with opera for children and families

The performance turns into a magical opera adventure when the opera singer reveals the world of opera stories and guides the young visitors through the fairytale land of opera masterpieces. During short conversations with the children, he stimulates children's curiosity as they discover the mysterious world of opera characters and the colourful range of emotions they express.

The singing of well-known opera arias and duets, as well as dramatic play, take children through the world of opera melodies composed by masters such as Mozart, Rossini, and Offenbach. As in a real theatre, opera heroes come to life before children's eyes, dressed in colourful costumes, when scenes from The Magic Flute, The Barber of Seville and Hoffman's tales unfold.

The children not only listen, but also try out the roles of heroes by singing, speaking quickly, and take props in their hands, which bring them closer to what is happening on stage. Their curiosity turns into excitement as they are placed in the center of the opera performance.

The sense of magic continues even as children learn about the inner laws of opera. They find out what a musical schedule or programme sheet is, where the duets and arias that are performed during the performance are recorded, they learn how to call the singers in an opera, and learn about different singing voices such as soprano, baritone and others. They enthusiastically research how opera singers express emotions through their singing, create different shades of voice and indulge in the magic of musical interpretation.

The content of opera stories enables children to recognize emotions and understand how they can be expressed through music. When listening to music, they experience feelings, connect with the characters and at the same time calm down and immerse themselves in their own feelings. And so, through this unique opera experience, children not only have fun, but also grow.
