But without knowing it you will be amazed at how much opera you already know and love. http://www.operabespoke.co.uk/article.php?id=55Tue, 06 Mar 2012 00:00:00 +0000How Corporate Event Entertainment Can Make Your Business More Successful The current economic climate is affecting many companies, both large and small. Attracting new clients and retaining existing clients is a challenge. Organising an event can impress new and existing clients and show them that you haven't forgotten about them. An event will also remind your clients that you're still in business, and can offer the products or services they need. Corporate events allow businesses to gain and retain more clients and can be more effective and cheaper than traditional marketing and advertising campaigns.http://www.operabespoke.co.uk/article.php?id=54Sun, 26 Feb 2012 00:00:00 +0000Blue Plaque Commemorates Opera Singer Elsie GriffinA blue plaque commemorating the life of the opera singer Elsie Griffin has been unveiled at St Michael on the Mount Primary School in Bristol where Elsie attended primary school as a child.

Others speak of him as a musical Symbolist, using sounds to stir feelings and sensations in the listener's mind in much the same way as Symbolists poets, such as Baudelaire and Verlaine. Regardless of how one interprets Debussy's music, it undeniably has a subtle yet magical power over the imagination.http://www.operabespoke.co.uk/article.php?id=51Wed, 11 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000Happy New Year!Just a little note on the first day of 2012 to thank you for being so very supportive of Opera Bespoke this past year. We have thoroughly enjoyed entertaining you and look forward to bringing you more great vocal performances in the form of singing waiters, opera galas, and other extraordinary shows. 2012 promises to be a great year and we have a lot to thank our predecessors for – the wonderful compositions and musical interpretations – so here is a list of important anniversaries to celebrate in 2012 and we hope to honour their memories:http://www.operabespoke.co.uk/article.php?id=50Sun, 01 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000Our Singing Waiters step back into Tudor timesDecember has almost come to an end and it has been a very busy month for Opera Bespoke.
