Kar2ouche - Music: In2arts Opera
Publisher: Immersive Education 
Platform:  Age Range: 12 to 18
Key Stage: KS3, 4 & 5 Formats Available:   | Produced in association with the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, Kar2ouche In2Arts:Opera proves that opera can be fun and interesting at the same time. Benjamin Britten's opera, Peter Grimes, is a perfect starting point to show how opera can be a form that spans the Arts and illuminates many issues that are still relevant today, such as financial worries, social exclusion, love, religion and death.
A number of cross-curricular activities stimulate students to use their investigative and creative skills to discover the building blocks and conventions that make up opera. The activities guide students towards creating their own original work, by taking them through composing and performing their own operatic conventions, painting their interpretations of the music, role-playing the main characters and reflecting upon different points of view.
The six musical activities cover:
Why do we sing?
The role of the chorus in Peter Grimes
Aria, recitative and duet
The jigsaw
Overtures and interludes
Peter's soliloquy
The 17 suggested activities are fully mapped to the National Curriculum Key Stage 3 for Music, English, Art, Drama, PSHE, Geography and History.
Each Kar2ouche title comes with a comprehensive Teacher Support Pack. This is supplied on CD and, for network site licence editions, in hard copy format. Additional hard copies can be purchased separately.
The content comes with a SCORM file that opens in your learning platform (VLE) with an product introduction. You can then launch the application from this browser page. Please note that you will need to have the application loaded to participate in any of the suggested activities.
