COMPANIONS OPERA
From 1993 until 2009 Companions Opera presented some of the best-known opera titles in a “360 Degree" setting in areas and stadiums, combining high artistic and musical quality.

Looking back, we feel privileged that we, as a commercial opera company, with the support from so many promoters and venues in so many cities, could stage our productions in venues and stadiums with seating capacities from 6.000 to 80.000 in Europe and Asia. We feel proud to have reached more than one million spectators in the 15 years of our producing and touring endeavours.

This live-experience will never be offered by us again, but we have decided to make all our 15 live video recordings available on a new archival website www.companions-opera.com as well as on this Companions Opera YouTube channel.
You can also enjoy the music of Companions Opera’s audio recordings of Aida, Carmen, Turandot, Cavalleria Rusticana, Pagliacci, Il Trovatore, Nabucco and La Traviata, available on all streaming services.
