Magic Flute at the Royal Opera House

---

On Tuesday 1st April, a group of students were very excited to visit the Royal Opera House for a fantastic immersive concert, Everybody Sing The Magic Flute.

The concert was a special event to launch United Learning’s collaboration with the Royal Opera House on a new project based on Mozart’s opera The Magic Flute.

As part of the project, students across the Group have been working with artists from the Royal Opera House to create a unique performance of the famous opera. With the aim of promoting students’ creativity, confidence and collaboration skills, the project has so far seen students learn six songs from The Magic Flute to perform at the launch event. Bringing together 1,700 students from 53 schools, students created a vibrant performance of the opera alongside the Royal Ballet & Opera Orchestra and professional opera singers.

During the Summer Term, students will then learn the rest of the repertoire to perform at one of three concerts across the country in June and July. These will be held at the Royal Festival Hall in London.

The concert was a wonderful way to launch the project, and our students are now very much looking forward to performing at the Royal Festival Hall  in the summer.
