BYO by request

Mad for Mimi? Quackers for Queen of the Night? 

Introducing BYO By Request - choose your favourite aria and in return for a donation we’ll work with a 2020 participant or recent alumni to perform it, film it in high quality and dedicate it to you or a loved one, all as part of our 2020 summer festival. 

For £500 a video recording of the aria will be yours to keep and you will be helping the next generation of opera performers continue their training in the industry. Along with the aria you’ll get an introduction clip of your artist thanking you for your contribution to BYO and the opportunity for a one-on-one Zoom call with your artist.

We’re pretty confident that we’ll be able to find the right BYO voice for most requests, but we’ll need to talk about it with you first. If you’re interested in requesting an aria, just fill in the form below and we’ll get back to you straight away.
