SUMMARY:Victorian Opera presents: Salome (Richard Strauss)
DESCRIPTION:Prepare to be astounded and mesmerised by this horrifying yet exhilarating spectacle. Based on Oscar Wilde’s notorious play\, Strauss’ opera explores the nature of desire and outer limits of human behaviour. One of the most extreme operatic experiences\, Salome is an extraordinary work that still has the same power to shock audiences as it did when it was first performed.

SUMMARY:Laughter and Tears
DESCRIPTION:Victorian Opera returns to The Palais following The Flying Dutchman (2015)\, bringing the breathtaking experience of large scale opera into the superb acoustics of this iconic theatre. \nIn Laughter\, the comical adventures of characters from the Commedia Dell’Arte unfold through a spellbinding mix of acrobatics and ancient Italian songs. Performers from Circus Oz join an ensemble of extraordinary singers to create a dream-like vision of 17th and 18th century theatre. \nIn Tears\, the lives of the performers from Laughter unravel through a dramatic retelling of Leoncavallo’s captivating tragedy I Pagliacci. Canio’s show-stopping aria ‘Vesti la giubba’ (‘Put on the costume’) has been immortalised by some of the world’s greatest singers. Now formidable Australian tenor Rosario La Spina gives new voice to Canio and Emma Pearson\, an Australian soprano taking Germany by storm\, returns to play the restless Nedda. Sung in Italian with English surtitles. \nLaughter and Tears is a co-production of Victorian Opera and State Opera of South Australia\, presented in association with Circus Oz. \n13\, 16\, 18 August 2016\, 7:30pm\nThe Palais \nTickets\n$50 – $130 Concessions available \nBooking\nvictorianopera.com.au\nTicketmaster 136 100

SUMMARY:2Cellos
DESCRIPTION:Following their critically acclaimed and sold out 2014 Australian tour\, dynamic instrumental duo 2CELLOS will return to Australia in January 2015. \nYoung Croatian cellists Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser\, together known as 2CELLOS\, came to international fame in 2011 when their cello version of Michael Jackson’s Smooth Criminal went viral. It has since reached over 20 million youtube views.  Their playing style has broken down the boundaries between different genres of music\, from classical and film music to pop and rock. 2CELLOS have no limits when it comes to performing live and are equally as impressive when playing Bach and Vivaldi as they are when rocking out. 2CELLOS toured Australia as part of Elton John’s band on his 2011 and 2012 Australian tours. \nSulic and Hauser have played the cello since childhood; Sulic graduated from the acclaimed Royal Academy of Music in London\, and Hauser from the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester\, both in 2011. Sulic has won a series of top prizes at numerous prestigious international music competitions including First and Special Prize at the VII Lutoslawski International Cello Competition in Warsaw (2009)\, First Prize at the European Broadcasting Union “New Talent” Competition (2006) and First Prize at the Royal Academy of Music Patron’s Award in Wigmore Hall (2011) among others. Hauser has worked with acclaimed classical artists such as Mstislav Rostropovich\, Bernard Greenhouse\, Mennahem Pressler and Ivry Gitlis\, to mention a few. He has collected no less than twenty-one first prizes at national and international music competitions. \n
