Open Call
WhistleBlast is presently working towards producing an inclusive and unique opera
project. The project will be all inclusive and bring together mainstream and special
needs multigenerational participants.
We are now launching an OPEN CALL for organisations who nurture and develop
the arts for anybody with additional needs and who would love to participate in this
programme-in any Irish location.
This phase of the project will start with on site visits by WhistleBlast director Mary
Curran to introduce the project and the subject of opera to possible participants.
There will then be a series of workshops with Mary and WhistleBlast pianist Conor
Linehan plus Irish National Opera and professional opera performers, to experiment
and create musical scripts and vocals led by the participants.
Please contact whistleblastquartet@gmail.com or telephone 087-2247643 to
express your organization’s interest and talk to Mary.
See www.whistleblastquartet.com for more details.
WhistleBlast is highly experienced in working with multi generational participants with
additional needs.
The development of this project is presently being funded by the Arts Council of
Ireland.
