The Royal Opera House's 'Concert for Ukraine' is completely sold-out, which is a seemingly impossible task among the greatest opera houses today. In an era of struggling to fill seats, the Royal Opera House has a sold-out show. This show includes a host of international opera singers coming together to present a special performance of much-loved arias and choruses from the opera repertory in support of the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
Ukrainian conductor Oksana Lyniv joins Music Director of The Royal Opera Antonio Pappano to conduct singers including Ukrainian tenor Dmytro Popov, Ukrainian baritone Yuriy Yurchuk, South African soprano Pretty Yende, and British-Italian tenor Freddie De Tommaso. Current Jette Parker Young Artists (JPYA) also perform alongside members of the Royal Opera Chorus and the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House.
The invasion of Ukraine is a tragedy which particularly resonates with the Royal Opera House given our long history of working with Ukrainian and Russian artists who continue to make an incredible contribution to the artistic excellence of our resident companies.
