Join us for an evening of operatic arias and duets right in the heart of London, in support of HELP MUSICIANS, the charity for professional musicians.


Favourites from La bohème, Don Giovanni and La Traviata will be performed alongside wonderful, but less well known works from Le Villi (Puccini), Ascanio in Alba (Mozart) and Armida Abandonata (Jommelli) that deserve to be heard.

Featuring a fantastic cast of singers – many of whom have performed with Random Opera Company before – and accompanied by Erika Gundesen on piano, this concert will delight and surprise you!

All proceeds from this concert will go to HELP MUSICIANS, the charity for professional musicians.
