Opus Summer Tour 2022
Last month was an exciting month for Opus Music School students as we hit the road for the Opus Summer Tour to the legendary Carnegie Hall in New York City!
After month's of planning and preparing, our incredible students hit the stage for the recital of a lifetime on July 12th, 2022 to perform at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall. This once in a lifetime opportunity and we couldn't be more proud of our students who represented Opus for the big day at Carnegie Hall and we're so thankful we got to share such a special experience with you all. Check out some of the photos below!
Here's a preview of some photos from our recital! Recital participants will receive an email link to a digital photo album with all the pictures taken by our professional photographer.
