Pocket Opera are Pat Leighton, Helen Roberts and Martin Le Poidevin with Kathy Gibbs at the piano. We sing to sell-out audiences in venues around Bristol.
Our fun-packed and fast-moving programmes consist of songs, arias and ensembles for piano and voice(s) in different styles and from different musical periods, and then a Pocket Opera – a collection of items from operas, woven into a new storyline.
Some reactions from previous performances:
“A perfect way to spend a couple of hours on a Sunday afternoon – beautiful singing presented to the audience in a relaxed, informative and entertaining way”
“Pocket Opera is a wonderful way to enjoy opera in small portions and intimate settings. The songs are classics, the singing is excellent, and the new storylines they use to weave the songs together are inventive, amusing and completely in the mould of classical opera”
Our next performance is at Arnos Vale on 2nd June – come and join us!
