Raphaela Mangan Mezzo

After her wonderful performance as "Orfeo" in the Gluck in 2010  Raphaela returns to Glasthule to sing her first Cherubino in "The Marriage of Figaro", a role which could be described as having been written for her.  Looking forward to it!

Gavan Ring Baritone

Gavan returns from his summer with Glyndebourne Festival Opera to sing the role of the Count in "The Marriage of Figaro".  A big welcome to him for his first appearance with Glasthule.  Don't miss it - he's terrific!

Katy Kelly Soprano

Katy's stunning "Queen of the Night" for Glasthule last year is still talked about! It will be no surprise to hear that Katy was snapped up by Diva Opera and has spent the last four months on tour singing the part in Britain and France. There's one more to go before she arrives home to start rehearsal for the Countess in "The Marriage of Figaro"

Brendan Collins Baritone

Glasthule just wouldn't be the same without Brendan! A huge favourite with our audiences, he sings the role of Figaro this year following his previous successes as Germont, Escamillo and Marcello.

Jennifer Davis Soprano

Jennifer joins Glasthule to sing Susanna in "The Marriage of Figaro" as well as Nanetta in highlights from "Falstaff" ( and more ) in the Opera Gala.
Don't miss this stunning soprano who gave a wonderful recital in the National Concert Hall last week.
