Who we are

Meeta Raval and Oliver Gerrish, forged a great friendship whilst studying in the melodious halls of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama a quarter of a century ago. Meeta is Britain's leading Lyrico Spinto Soprano and has an international opera career spanning over two decades. Oliver, a countertenor has worked extensively as a concert artist and is also an architectural historian amongst many other things!

Meeta and Oliver have long nurtured a shared vision of establishing an opera company for the people of Cambridge. With Meeta having embraced the city as her home for the past ten years, and Oliver an Alumni of Cambridge University, they want to bring the magic of opera to the hearts of the people of Cambridge.

Cambridge's profound music scene has long been a cornerstone of its cultural narrative. Now with the addition of Cambridge Opera we hope you support us on this exhilarating journey as we let the power of opera ignite passion and inspire audiences of all ages, creating cherished memories that endure long after the final curtain falls.
