MUSIC lovers are in for a treat as Malvern St James school presents a Gala Night at the Opera.

On Saturday, May 2 the Malvern St James Chorus will be joined by professional soloists Emma Johnston (soprano), Richard Pollock (tenor) and Oliver Dunn (baritone) to perform a selection of arias and chorus numbers from the world’s best-loved operas and musicals.

In Grand Opera style the Gala Night will be a black tie occasion, and the programme will include selections from Carmen, La Boheme, Fiddler on the Roof and many more besides.
