Victorian Opera (Melbourne)

Victorian Opera (Melbourne)

Victorian Opera is an opera company based in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The company was founded in 2005 and commenced operations in January 2006 with funding from the Victorian government, and Richard Gill as Artistic Director. The replacement for the VSO quickly acquired an enthusiastic (and generous) support base through their Patrons programme, whose members assist the company on a financial basis annually, as do a growing number of corporate partners.
