New Year, new tour

Scottish Opera’s hugely popular Opera Highlights tour kicks off once again in February, travelling to 14 smaller, more remote venues the length and breadth of Scotland, from Lerwick in the north to Castle Douglas in the south. Having already journeyed to 17 venues across the country in the Autumn, the Spring tour begins on 6 February in Livingston. 

The programme

Scottish Opera’s Head of Music Derek Clark has curated an extremely varied programme including favourites from Rossini’s Barber of Seville, Mozart’s Così fan tutte and Gilbert and Sullivan's The Gondoliers, as well as lesser known gems rarely performed on the Scottish stage.

The performances

Locations - in alphabetical order - will be Ballachulish, Braemar, Callander, Castle Douglas, Halkirk, Hawick, Kirkwall, Lerwick, Livingston, Midmar, Montrose, Pitlochry, Rutherglen and Tain.
