We thoroughly enjoyed this event. Excellent tenor, soprano and pianist. Popular pieces performed. We love live music and being so close to the musicians was fabulous. Read some negative comments but as long as you read the leaflet you will know what to expect. The more expensive seats are just nearer the front but we were not far back. The church is clearly undergoing renovations but this sort of added to the charm.

The concert was at the Evangelical Methodist Church. The performance was excellent, i only wish they had CD’s for sale at the end of the concert. I highly recommend this concert.

Excellent musicians, good atmosphere. We really enjoyed it-and I am not an opera lover. Serving wine in the break was also appreciated.

We enjoyed the experience - the performers were well prepared, there were no dull moments. The performance started on time.

The two singers and the one pianist were very good, nice voices and great popular songs. Calling it an "opera" is a stretch, it is more like a string of single performances. Other than the voices, the "opera" was lacking. The show took place in a church which made great acoustics, however, no atmosphere at all. If the details had been more thought through; as pillows on the seat, a more coherent show and a more welcoming entrance, this would have been a great experience in entirety! We still had a lovely moment. The pianist was amazing.

If you haven't already read that the performance is just by 2 singers and a pianist in an undecorated church...well that is the case. The soprano and pianist were very good, but the male singer was really struggling. Perhaps he had a cold? I have been to a similar evening in Lucca several times and the performers were much better. Don't buy VIP seating as it will get you only a few pews closer to the front and everybody was given the fruit punch when we were there. Having said all that, if you are not used to Met or La Scala performance quality, the performance will be a fun night out hearing songs you will probably be familiar with. The audience was very appreciative the evening we were there, which was delightful. Don't be put off by the scaffolding over the front door of the church. You are in the right place.

I must start this review by saying the 2 singers and pianist were extremely talented and I thoroughly enjoyed the operatic skills on show. However, I have to agree with some reviewers that the advertising is misleading in as much as, I knew there was only 2 singers and a pianist but it was advertised as an operatic experience in a fabulous acoustic location with wine. I booked VIP tickets, waste of money….. given the fact that the reality of VIP tickets meant front pew in the undecorated church. The first part of the show lasted approximately 25 minutes. The interlude lasted 10-15 minutes, the Wine, as advertised, was in fact tropical fruit drink! The second half of the show was over in 20 more minutes, the whole experience was just short of an hour, in and out. In their defence, I suppose I should say they were only performing to about 15 people which must be difficult in a church setting. It did feel like take 80 euros, get in and get out as quickly as we can and not deliver what was advertised. The singing was good, the atmosphere lacked and was very dissatisfying. Having experienced it I wouldn’t fall for the intimate and excellent acoustic advertising again and would prefer something more suitable. It could be so much better with more effort. Even some candles and less stark lighting would be an atmospheric start. I’m basing this review on my experience, but having read some great reviews I’m struggling to understand why my experience was not in line with others reviews. Was this performance just a poor one off experience? I hope so, because the singers and pianist don’t deserve average reviews.

Very nice non-descript event. The signers and pianists were excellent and engaging. There is a bit of confusion because the Church is actually called ‘Chiesa’ Via Quattro Novembre, 107, 00187 Roma RM, Italy. I think TripAdvisor accidentally mis translated the name.

The up close experience with incredible musicians was a perfect way to spend the evening. It was concise with excellent selection of songs - perfect after a long day of sightseeing. The acoustics in the church were fantastic.

The picture & reality are not in line. No programm and the musicians spoke very unclear when sharing their music piece.

Evening at an elegant opera . Classic and familiar songs. We couldn’t believe how the voices carried to fill the space with wonderful performances and no microphone.

Amazing pianist- amazing singers. Acoustics in the venue were spectacular. Highlight of our trip. The host of the event was also amazing. Was worth every penny and more.

😘 The opera experience you can have only in real, there is no sound technique you can record this vibes of energy. Go and sit on the first line , as possible to the singers.. and feel it 😍😍😍

Not the same as presented on website. Pianist and 2 singers not a group of musicians. Piano was out of tune.

Great choice of arias, not enough singing for us , too many solo piano performance. Arrangements could have been better. On the night the Tenor struggled to hit the higher notes especially Nessa Dorma at the end.

This concert was excellent! I was not sure what to expect because of some reviews, but I highly recommend it. The singers/pianist were amazing, welcoming, beautiful and so talented! The song selection was perfect - many tunes you will recognize. The location was a little messy, but the acoustics were incredible. You could feel the sound moving around the space. Finally, the amount of time was just right for a casual opera fan.

Advertising misleading. The first half of the photos show you a group of performers with diverse instruments. That is not what it is. It says your show includes a glass of wine with your ticket, also not true. So here’s what it is: 3 performers- 2 singers and one pianist and a glass of fruit punch. The piano was probably donated to the church and does not have the best sound despite the pianist’s talent. The singers are also talented, but only two and no other instruments. These three performers are depicted in the last half of the advertisement photos. However, the advertisement leads you to believe you are seeing a full show production in a more aesthetic venue, not three people in a small underwhelming church. I noticed a similar review but decided to give it a chance anyway. Unfortunately my experience was the same and I suspect they are doing this on purpose to sell tickets and not being clear on what it really is, just say “the site hasn’t been updated yet,” when confronted.

The whole experience was really great! The sound was good, being in a church. Although when the performers are speaking , it was a hard to understand them due to the church acoustics. Would highly recommend if you are at all interested in this type of vocal performance.
