Relative Pitch Opera 

 The classical music division of Little Pixie Productions...

We are delighted to announce that from January 2010 Helena Leonard will be joining us as our Classical Programme Director for Relative Pitch Opera.

Opera can be seen as quite an elitist art form and many people never get to experience it. We believe that everyone of all ages should have access to opera and classical music. We are dedicated to breaking down the barriers that surround these genres by bringing these classical experiences to you by making them more accessible but without losing the quality that you would expect from these art forms.

All of our classical performers are established musicians in their own right and have performed with many of the major opera companies including English National Opera, Welsh National Opera and Scottish Opera.

Workshops based around opera, classical music and vocal technique are also available, tailored to a range of age groups from school age to adults.

We have several different shows in our repertoire including Operatastic! The Accessible Guide to Opera and Sing We Noel for the Christmas season. For further details about them press the link -
