Spreading the Joy of Opera
with Dr Hannah Mondry Cherrybrook’s local musicologist and educator.
Join us for an engaging and insightful introductory talk that opens a fresh pathway into opera appreciation — welcoming to absolute beginners and enriching for seasoned music lovers.
Hannah explores opera’s drama and music through the lens of human cognition:how our minds respond to sound, why certain moments move us, and what makes opera’s emotional power so irresistible. Her mission is to demystify these mechanisms and make the beauty of opera accessible to all, regardless of musical background.
