Opera for Kids - Kids Music CompanyOpera for Kids is a project aimed at educating children in what opera is and to help them feel less estranged from this wonderful historic art form. Opera for kids can offer a variety of services ranging from a 45 minute presentation to workshops which can result in a unique opera performed and created by the children.
Opera for kids offers a variety of services:
A presentation consists of the live performance of two arias with English surtitles. Talking with the children about the arias, what opera is and where they might have heard opera in their everyday lives will all help them gain a better understanding of opera.
In the workshops the children explore the many aspects of putting on an operatic production. Time can be taken to create an opera utilising simple famous arias while incorporating the children’s own words and story.
Opera for Kids was started by professional opera singer, Tobias Merz. His many years experience on the stage, working with children of all ages and co-ordinating music within schools has given him a thorough insight into education and entertaining. Opera for Kids was begun due to an observed distinct need in many primary schools for more input into the arts. His love for singing, performing and working with young people joined forces to form this unique project.
A New Zealand born tenor, he studied at the Royal Conservatorium in The Netherlands. He is an experienced performer and teacher.
