About

We are delighted to welcome Mid Wales Opera for a very special summer evening of glorious music at Powis Castle and Garden.

The evening’s programme promises a wonderful array of songs, arias, and ensembles from the timeless masterpieces of Mozart, Bizet, Verdi, and Puccini to the sparkling melodies of Strauss and Lehár, and the golden age musicals of Rodgers and Hammerstein. Traditional Welsh, English, and Italian favourites will also weave their way through this summer celebration.

Join us for a memorable night featuring soprano Mari Wyn Williams, mezzo-soprano Rebecca Afonwy-Jones, tenor Robyn Lyn Evans, and baritone Mark Nathan. They will be accompanied by virtuoso harpist Elfair Grug and MWO’s Music Director and pianist Jonathan Lyness.

This promises to be a magical evening not to be missed.
