This impressive 18-opera collection displays the scope of The Royal Opera’s work. From the sumptuous beauty of Richard Eyre’s La traviata and the picturesque realism of John Copley’s La bohème to the psychological intensity of David McVicar’s Salome and Kasper Holten’s Król Roger, the collection spans more than two hundred years of great operatic works from the classical period to the present day.

Featuring some of the company’s most popular guest artists, including Renée Fleming, Jonas Kaufmann, Joseph Calleja and Diana Damrau, and conductors including The Royal Opera’s Music Director Antonio Pappano, The Royal Opera Collection is a dazzling tour of operatic treasures by Mozart, Verdi, Bizet, Wagner, Mascagni, Leoncavallo, Puccini, Richard Strauss, Szymanowski, Britten and George Benjamin.
