Power of opera meets Shakespeare

THE power of opera is set to meet Shakespeare’s timeless works when Voxalis Opera bring their intimate opera recital, Shakespeare to the Hinterland including performances at Maleny Community Centre (February 20, 7pm) and Eudlo Hall (March 1, 4pm).

Drawing on more than 400 years of Shakespeare’s enduring influence, this program brings together some of opera’s most recognisable works inspired by his plays.

Rich in character and emotion, Shakespeare’s stories have long provided fertile ground for composers including Purcell, Verdi, Gounod and Thomas.
