Divine Opera are an opera duo, formed of professional classically trained singers - a Tenor and a Soprano. Providing beautiful sacred music for religious ceremonies and gorgeous arias and duets for civil ceremonies. Divine Opera can perform as the guests arrive, as the bride walks down the aisle, during the signing of the register, as the newly weds leave and even at the subsequent reception. In addition to weddings, Divine Opera can also perform at champagne receptions and gala dinner evenings, offering fun and accessible programmes that can be performed as a stand-alone concert. Accompaniment can also be provided in the form of small orchestral ensemble, pianist or backing tracks (additional fees apply for musicians). Our recent performances include: Royal Automobile Club (Epsom), Emirates Stadium (VIP Lounge) Brazil v Italy; New Zealand Concert Tour; Wallace Collection London (for Saudi Petroleum Overseas Ltd); Holme Lacy House (Warner Hotels); Hazlitt Arts Centre (Maidstone); St Ermin's Hotel London (for The Puccini Society); Bristol Cathedral; Aston University Conference Centre.
