Why see British Youth Opera Euridice?
British Youth Opera, in association with Southbank Sinfonia, returns to the Peacock Theatre for the seventh year with two new productions featuring the next generation of professional opera singers.
Based on the Orpheus myth that fascinated Renaissance artists and musicians, Euridice weaves the translucent 16th century vocal writing of the first ever opera composer, Jacopo Peri, into a distinctively modern opera by Stephen Oliver. Performed in a new semi-staged production with a cast of 18 singers and an onstage ensemble of eight players, it is an enthralling piece of theatre combining old with new, ideally suited to a cast of young singers.
