OPERA MATERIALS

WELCOME TO ALL OPERA COMPANIES!!

 

We want to share with you the innovative approach we have developed to engage students (grade 3 – HS) in preparation to attend a live opera event. These materials were created in complete collaboration with the outstanding staff at Austin Opera. To learn more about this product and collaboration, or to inquire about purchase of the complete Carmen teaching package for your organization, contact Mollie Tower, Mighty Music Publishing, MightyMusic.Mollie@gmail.com.
