Ukrainian National Opera presents Dnipro Opera with Carmen at Victoria Theatre Halifax

Coming all the way from Dnipro, Ukraine, this opera company, featuring an impressive cast and accompanied by a large live orchestra of over thirty musicians, will perform the passionate Carmen opera this season.

Carmen features music by Georges Bizet and will be sung in French with English surtitles.

Producer, Alexej Ignatow of Amande Concerts Ltd. said: “We are really excited to be bringing back this opera company in these difficult times.
