YOU NEVER FORGET YOUR FIRST OPERA!
From 2015, for an audience between 0 and 36 months old.
Music can play a fundamental role in the growth of the very young, contributing to cognitive development, motor skills, and learning. Opera baby is the first step of the Opera Education project to introduce the youngest children to the suggestions and stimuli of the opera world.
The musical concept, designed for an audience of children aged 6 to 36 months, is based on a repertoire title, emphasizing recurring and iconic arias to encourage careful and participatory listening from the youngest audience. The experience promotes sensory experimentation with colors, shapes, materials, and languages designed for a child-friendly stage setup, aiming to create a highly impactful and easily understandable theatrical and musical performance. The performances have a duration of 40 minutes.
The setup is specially designed and developed for the very young audience, allowing freedom in terms of space and time: an initial observation phase followed by an exploration of the space. The show combines singing, movement, and live music with simple, repeated actions that accompany the sounds.
