Tayside Opera are this year celebrating their fiftieth anniversary, with an enjoyable production.

Most of the old amateur opera groups in Scotland have either fallen by the wayside or abandoned opera in favour of musicals. The most recent to give up performing after last year's swansong was Opera Camerata in Edinburgh. How refreshing then to see that Tayside Opera, after several years in the doldrums, now look as though they are heading very much in the right direction. Last year, for Nabucco, they revealed some healthy new (young) blood in the chorus. For this year's 50th anniversary celebration, not only did they have a healthy chorus of twenty-one voices, but, for the first time in a decade or so they had stretched to an orchestra. The eighteen players included several familiar and welcome names that ensured a useful standard under the regular conductor, Richard Johnstone. The opera chosen was Verdi's great middle period masterpiece, La traviata.

Further evidence that the company are moving in the right direction again came with the appointment of a new director for this production, in Alan Borthwick, He was, for several decades, a leading tenor soloist for several Scottish companies, most notably the Edinburgh Gilbert & Sullivan Society, with whom he performed not only all the tenor roles in G & S, but several parts composed by Sullivan with other wordsmiths. Indeed as a singer he worked with Tayside in its early years, as lead tenor in Lucia, Ernani and Carmen, as well as La traviata. Now a busy director working up and down the country, he was a very welcome guest.

Another novelty was the use of two new performance venues. St Andrews Town Hall has a flat floor, which is not ideal for sightlines, but is an attractive size. So is the Space, a performance venue at Dundee College on the Kingsway, more often used for dance.
