The Oxford Girls’ Choir 2020 opera is an innovative and exciting exploration of Purcell and Puccini’s portrayal of tragic heroines.

Puccini and Purcell may seem to some a strange mixture, but to Oxford Girls' Choir, they are all in a day's work. Our 2005 participation in La bohème with Joseph Calleja in the spectacular Astra opera house in Gozo was a defining experience for Oxford Girls' Choir (joined by members of our junior and boys' choirs). After our 2018 singing-and-dancing presentation of Handel and Britten in 'Ovid', this year we combine and contrast these two great composers for the stage in their depiction of Tragic Heroines.
