Suzanne Ortuso, Artistic director of Bel Canto Young Opera, has curated another of her stunning programs of operatic arias, to be performed by Tasmanian singers, several of whom are established professionals in mainland opera companies, while others are emerging local stars.

You will also hear from Dr Bob Brown, president of the Amy Sherwin Fund, about the long overdue project of creating a permanent memorial to Amy Sherwin's extraordinary life and achievements.
