Chamber Opera is a
venture at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge,
founded with the aim of presenting a biennial fully staged
production.
In 2007 the initial opera was Handel’s Xerxes
(review).
In
2009 Monteverdi's
Orfeo
was performed over
five nights plus a matinée at the ADC Theatre in Cambridge.
In
2012 Purcell’s Dido
and Aeneas was
performed in an all-student production.
Cambridge
Handel Opera (CHOG) was founded with the intention of presenting
fully-staged productions of Handel’s operas, in English, every
two years in the West Road Concert Hall. Recent productions included
Ariodante, Agrippina
and Atalanta.
Following the winding up of that group, Cambridge
Handel Opera Company was founded, and gave its first production,
four staged performances of Rodelinda
in April 2018 at the Leys, Cambridge under
Artistic Director Julian Perkins. In 2019 the staged production will
be Tamerlano.
