Royal Opera House

Royal Opera House (prevedeno Kraljevska opera) je ime opere u londonskoj ulici Bow u kvartu Covent Garden (Borough City of Westminster).

Historija

Londonska opera započela je s radom 1732. pod imenom Covent Garden Theatre - zbpg tog je mnogi i danas tako zovu. Prva zgrada izgorjela je u katastrofalnom požaru 1808. Druga zgrada otvorena je samo godinu dana kasnije - ali je i ona izgorjela 1856. Treća i posljednja zgrada dovršena je 1892., tad je opera preimenovana u Royal Opera House. Njen današnji izgled je rezultat velike rekonstrukcije napravljene 1996., koja je koštala 210 milijuna £.

Tokom svoje duge historije pozornica londonske opere bila je scena čitavog niz velikih britanskih praizvedbi. Na njoj je 1817. prvi put izveden Mozartov Don Giovanni, kao i Figarov pir. Od drugih velikih opera valja spomenuti Rossinijevog Seviljskog brijača i Puccinijevu Toscu.

Londonska opera je vodeći engleski ansambl, kojem se 1946. pridružio Kraljevski balet, tako da odtad dijele orkestar i kor od četrdeset i pet pjevača.

Must-visit for any trip to London. Come to the box office at 10am on the day of a (sold-out) performance to try to score one of the 67 same-day tix. Savour the beauty with a drink on the terrace

Mariinsky's Swan Lake was wonderful. If you want to avoid the interval crowds and queues (and can afford some extra expense) book a table in advance at one of the Opera restaurants - it was worth it!

Great seating on the upper terrace level, especially if you want to enjoy a takeaway dinner pre show; enjoy the views of Covent Garden and listen to the buskers below.

Beautiful building and the productions vary depending on Director and Stage Manager. Worth visiting the Terrace Balcony where you can have a Bird's Eye View of Covent Garden and London Landscape
