The best of Rossini, Donizetti and Bellini
CONCERT WITH ORCHESTRA

The glorious heritage of bel canto ('beautiful singing'): its power of expression, its poetic sensibility and the exhilaration of its virtuosity have timeless appeal. Experience an evening of vocal prowess with exhilarating arias, great duets and thrilling orchestral music from rare gems and favourites.

Celebrate the inimitable art of bel canto with some of its greatest living exponents. Australian voices have played an important role in this great tradition, dating back to Melba and Sutherland, and it is continued on the most prestigious world stages by today’s stars such as Jessica Pratt. 

The toast of Italian opera Daniela Barcellona also co-stars alongside company favourite Carlos E. Bárcenas in this one-night-only concert.

Something indescribable happens each time Victorian Opera performs bel canto masterworks at Hamer Hall. We guarantee another electrifying experience.
