WHAT WE DO

Signature Productions

L'arietta stages two main productions every season.

We produce fun and fresh chamber operas that reach not just to the experienced opera-goer, but also to the wider general public, many of whom may not have attended any arts events previously.

To be relevant and to entertain, L’arietta’s productions are:

Approximately one hour
In English
Experiential – Sights! Sounds! Smells!
Influenced by pop culture trends

Technical Workshops & Masterclasses

L’arietta conducts an ongoing series of workshops and masterclasses geared towards semi-professional singers, or students in the institutes of higher learning in Singapore, who may be contemplating a career in the operatic field.

We believe that in order for our field to grow, it is imperative to develop the future local talent.
