The Cairo Opera House will welcome music lovers on 28th July, with a range of live performances and a range of international and domestic opera genres.

The concert's program includes a selection of international musicals like Opera Madame Butterfly, Trovatore, Carmen, and La Traviata, in addition to a number of well-known Arabic Operas from Egypt's classic extensive repertoire, such as Oh my sun, Embracing Islam, oh Egypt, and Muhammad Messenger of God.

The performances will be conducted by Mahady Elsayed with Anastasiya Shytsko as choirmaster and other members of the Cairo Opera House Choir.

Established in 1956, the Cairo Opera Choir presents Choral works during the opera seasons, as well as some orchestral works with symphonic concerts. When first established, the Choir consisted of international 80 singers led by Attora Cordon, followed by Vittorio Barbieri and later Adriano Grosi.
