Celebrating their 51st year in the Bowl in 2010, these glorious events bring beautiful music and great artists from around the world to Australia's greatest outdoor space for music.

This exciting collaboration with Victorian Opera includes overtures, choruses and arias from The Magic Flute, Rigoletto, Tannhäuser, Eugene Onegin, Il trovatore, The Pearl Fishers, Lakmé and Lucia di Lammermoor, under Richard Gill's direction.
