EU adds 2 million for Operavision

The European Union today granted 2 million Euros to our partners OperaVision to continue streaming one opera a week from companies all over Europe, some of them little known.

OperaVision allows viewers to watch performances streamed live from the theatre and on demand for several months thereafter. The platform offers a variety of shows – including opera, operetta, musical theatre, dance, ballet and concerts – all for free, live and on demand. OperaVision offers new streams on a weekly basis, making up a balanced online season of the best loved titles alongside world premieres and new discoveries.

Among the less well-known titles currently available on OperaVision is Lviv National Opera’s production of When the Fern Blooms, an opera-ballet based on Gogol stories by Yevhen Stankovych, rescued 40 years after being banned by Soviet authorities.
