The score contains some of Britten\u2019s wittiest musical invention and his gifts for parody and caricature are given full rein. Young Opera is a company run by Sara Reynolds who is Head of Voice at the Junior Royal Academy of Music, London. The young singers are either JRAM students or Sara's private pupils and the group prides itself on presenting standards of a professsional level whilst remaining well within the compass and capabilities of the youthful voices involved. This year's team includes many faces familiar to the Isle of Skye, who have been involved in the locally based Inner Sound company as both chorus members and soloists and who are thrilled to be back after the success of 'The Marriage of Figaro' last year. Three of the singers have been awarded major vocal scholarships to music conservatoires throughout the country and have given recitals around the country and on BBC radio. In ten years time, these teenagers will begin their careers in earnest and you'll be glad you saw them here first!<p><small>Date: 24\/07\/08<br\/><\/small><small>Start Time: 7.30 pm<br\/><\/small><small>Venue: Sabhal M\u00f2r Ostaig, TDC main hall<br\/><\/small><small>Audience Numbers: 51<br\/><\/small><small>Type: Music Classical and Opera<br\/><\/small><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-223","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/223","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/223\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
