Opera Gala Concert 2023

Our latest Opera Gala Concert was on Saturday 18th November at 7.30pm at the Cripps Hall Theatre, Northampton School for Boys.

Another wonderfully varied programme that included popular Verdi choruses such as The Brindisi from La Traviata, The Anvil Chorus from Il Trovatore and the lesser known but beautiful Barcarolle from I Due Foscari, as well as audience participation in The Slaves’ Chorus from Nabucco.

Among many other arias, Linda Richardson joined the chorus in ‘La Vergine degli Angeli’ from Verdi’s The Force of Destiny and Stephen Gadd sang the wonderfully dramatic ‘Te Deum’ from Puccini’s Tosca supported by the NOG Chorus. John Hudson sang ‘On with the Motley’(‘Vesti la Giubba’) from I Pagliacci  and the ever popular ‘You are my Heart’s Delight’.
