A "Community
Opera" is a series of productions where most of the participants
are children and adults – amateur chorus singers and dancers
– working along with professional soloists, orchestra, director
and designers. It is a very special initiative of the Israeli Opera.
Most of the amateur participants have never been introduced to opera
beforehand. Once they get to take part in a production and are led
by a professional team into a magical world of opera, they become
aware of this wonderful form of art.
"Wonderful
sounds, lots of colors and plenty of local talents were seen on
the stage of the Municipal Auditorium, in a Gala performance of
L'elisir d'amore. 180 singers, dancers and acrobats had taken part
in the show…It was a great experience…" (In
