Dear Members,
Dear General Directors, Opera and Ballet Directors and Artistic Administrators, Orchestra, Chorus and Ballet Managers,
Dear Friends from the European Concert Hall Organisation (ECHO),
The autumn conference runs under the title Benvenuti all’Opera; nothing could be more suitable as we will be able to celebrate together the inclusion of The Art of Italian Opera Singing in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, and 25 October is of course World Opera Day!
Our members often come to us with questions and suggestions for issues that we can focus on and at this conference we will be looking at the artistic forces at the heart of the opera house, the cohabitation of opera and ballet, and profiling the artistic identity of each artistic force. A highlight will be the presentation of the exciting new Opera Europa Next Generation Platform supported by Creative Europe!
Our generous host Mathieu Jouvin is also promising us a great artistic experience with 3 different Manon operas and of course there will be plenty of opportunities for socialising and networking. There are so many good reasons to join us in Turin so please register soon to enjoy the benefits of early registration.
