Corporates

The National Opera Studio aims to make a significant contribution not just to opera but to the wider creative and cultural life of the UK through the provision of top-quality professional training, and by our engagement and position in the opera sector. Aligning with the National Opera Studio to support our work can convey ethical corporate values and facilitate a CSR agenda.

We are delighted to have supported the National Opera Studio over the last few years, supporting their Young Artists and contributing to making the NOS' mission a reality.

We can also organise tailor-made hospitality based events.

As an expanding organisation, committed to innovation, there are many exciting opportunities for new partners and we would be delighted to talk to you about how we can be meeting your business's needs.
