7 years! A lot has happened since the premiere of our first opera with @OperaSunderland and this reminder brought great memories of working with a fantastic team of singers, directors, chorus, technicians and musicians. #artscouncilofengland #operasunderland #sunderland

If you have taken time this weekend to visit a Cenotaph, and pay respects to those who did not come back, take a little more to watch this and remember the returners. Lives are taken by war in more ways than dying.
Wow, that was emotional! A huge thanks to everyone who joined us for the world premiere of #The SoldiersReturnOpera to mark #RemembranceSunday ❤️ The film is now available to watch until 30 Nov for free via our website: operasunderland.co.uk/operas… #Opera #OperaOnline #LoveOpera
