This week, the New Zealand Opera came to our school and showed us their performance , The Elixir of Love.
The actors played these people, Nemorino-fry cook, Adina-rich and beutiful daughter of shop owner, Belcore-famous handsome actor and Dulcamara-salesman. I think Nemorino was a Baritone (middle) opera singer, Adina was a Soprano (high) Belcore was a Bass (low) and Dulcamara was a Baritone as well.
Something that I enjoyed about this performance was the set and how it looked like a real fish & chips shop, I also loved how funny the opera was.
Something that I found interesting about this performance was it was orignally sung in latin. I found this interesting because I didn´t know where opera came from.
Something that I learned about opera was that the singers can break a mirror with their voice. I loved this fact because I thought that this only happend in cartoons.
Below are some pictures of the opera.


Have you ever been to an opera, if you have, did you find it interesting?
