On Sunday, 1st December, Colet House is proud to present -- in conjunction with The British Opera Academy and Music Mind Spirit Trust -- a very special concert, ‘The Faces of Passion’, at 6:30 pm in the Top Studio of this historic building in London to celebrate the opening of the holiday season and the 20th Anniversary of the Music Mind Spirit Trust.

The programme will be hosted by special guest-International Opera Star Tenor Allan Glassman, who has thrilled audiences singing leading roles in opera centres across the world in New York, Chicago, Santa Fe, Dallas, LA, Montreal, Frankfurt, Israel and Paris. Hailed as the Otello of his generation: “Glassman is a full-on Verdian tenor.”

Along with Mr. Glassman and acclaimed pianist Craig J White, the concert will feature hand-picked international singers from top conservatories in the UK, including the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, Royal Academy of Music, Royal College of Music and Royal Northern College of Music.

The varied programme of well-known favourites from the standard repertoire will include supratitles.  Allan Glassman, who will lead a master class for the singers that afternoon, will also sing in the concert.

Admission is free, but donations will be gladly accepted so that more concerts and programme events can be supported in the future by MMST for these outstanding young musicians. 

Doors will open at 6 for the 6.30 pm concert and there will be the opportunity to meet with the artists over a glass of wine following this free event. Here is the link to the concert on the Colet website.
