About

The Singapore Lyric Opera (SLO) is the flagship company of western opera in Singapore. As the longest established in this sector of the arts, we engage renowned international and local performers and musicians under our repertoire. We aim to promote and present Western operas and concerts not frequently performed in Asia-Pacific for communities from all walks of life in Singapore. 1991 marked our inaugural performance of Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte, and since then, we have staged high-quality opera productions, preserving the traditions of the art form whilst still remaining relevant. Our Vision As the flagship opera company in Singapore, SLO continues to upgrade our quality of musical and artistic content. SLO strives to contribute to the development of the opera scene in Singapore by playing a key role in identifying, encouraging, developing and nurturing current and future generations of young artists and other musical talents. SLO also champions the professional growth of production and technical personnel, by which a performance’s foundation is rooted. With all of SLO’s efforts, we aim to dispel misconceptions that opera music is irrelevant and difficult to decipher. We actively seek to join the ranks of like-minded causes and other companies in Singapore with the intent of collaboration and exchange and to expand our work with the community at large in promoting the art and joy of singing. Our Mission To present world-class operas and concert performances that showcase international and local talents, establishing opera as an integral part of Singapore’s cultural landscape. Play an active role in enriching and growing audiences across local and regional communities. Build and present a repertoire of works that will expand the length and breadth of the company artistically, yet immerse the audience in the expanding aesthetics of western theatrical interaction, without compromising the artistic integrity and passion rooted in the heart of SLO. Curate programmes that will balance the exciting medley of evergreen classics and lesser-known gems, catering to and developing further the taste and appetite of both new opera enthusiasts and opera fans. Organise outreach programmes to connect to schools, colleges, and children’s centres engaged in music and drama interests. Engage Singaporeans through the appreciation and presentation of opera through nurturing and promoting the joyful art of singing.
