Nelson’s Opera in the Park really was a ‘Once in a Lifetime Experience’. Dame Kiri te Kanawa, one of the world’s best loved and respected sopranos, along with Jonathan Lemalu, (A bass baritone with a commanding presence on stage and a voice that is earning him huge accolades from audiences and critics world-wide.), Simon O’Neill (A talented tenor with engagements as far ahead as La Scala in 2012), Helen Medlyn (New Zealand’s favourite mezzo was fantastic too). Along with Vector Wellington Orchestra – Conductor Marc Tadd. Amazing.
We were so fortunate to experience and enjoy a world class concert in the relaxed setting of Nelsons Trafalgar Park.
The evening began with a picnic whilst we waited for the show to begin. And wow what a show it was. Andy and I are now hooked on Opera!
The fireworks were a brilliant finale to finish off a magical evening.
