Dear friends and supporters

 

After a 20 year career in the music business I feel the time is finally right to launch OperaWebinar, my online Academy, to pass on the love for Opera in all its various forms to new generations of musicians. 

Opera is a fascinating world full of emotions, action, drama, unexpected events, suffering and great happiness. Bringing to life what is written on a music sheet and being part of the magic that is created during the performance with the public is a moment of incomparable value that transports each of us to another dimension. You never want it to end! 

To stage the great masterpieces of the repertoire requires an understanding of how to work in a team by comparing our ideas with all the artists involved in the show. Trying to feel the pain and joy of the characters of the drama in one's own skin, to solve the technical problems present in the musical direction of an Opera are all fundamental building blocks for developing one's own and personal interpretation.

 

Precisely for these reasons, in these times so difficult for our art, I decided to develop a program where young talents can discuss, analyze and deepen with me every aspect of these immense masterpieces so they can be ready for a brilliant future career. 

I invite you to join me in helping young musicians discover this enthralling art form where words, music and singing come together in an indissoluble bond. With your support we will shape a future for Opera that in my opinion is of fundamental importance for our being. 

 

Best regards,

Carlo Montanaro
