@OperaVision_eu @LibrettistNet @Second_Movement
If you're looking for some #WorldOperaDay behind-the-scenes show, why not try our collaboration with @natoperastudio?
And if you're a librettist, join the Network to meet other librettists and find composers to work with!
We've been working with @natoperastudio on 12:42 - an ambitious project with 42 creatives, produced almost entirely in quarantine.
Watch the documentary here.

"Only proposals for new works (i.e. projects which have not yet proceeded beyond initial planning stages) will be considered."
"Proposal should include samples of score/libretto for new work."

Reflecting on a thought-provoking #ROHEngender weekend @RoyalOperaHouse - inspiring conversations happening on and off stage, and powerful work shared by talented female creative teams. Yes please more of this.
Looking forward to the second day of #ROHEngender @RoyalOperaHouse, including some more #ROHOpenStudio performances in association with... us! #WomenInOpera

We're excited about all of this - especially the workshops we've been collaborating with @RoyalOperaHouse on!
Looking forward to seeing lots of you there, and showing why this is so valuable.

Toi toi, everyone! The Opera Makers course is close to the Network's heart, and we're looking forward to seeing the show very soon!
A triple-bill of brand-new short operas written by Guildhall composers and librettists in tonight's Opera Makers as we premiere 'Blind', 'Genizah' and 'Grace'.
Break a leg to cast, crew, musicians & creative team!

Thoughts with all our members this #NationalWritingDay - whether you're writing today or not, you're still a librettist.

Enjoying #CardiffSinger's beautiful singing - though we're pretty much contractually obliged to ask who wrote the words for most of these songs... ;)
