Opera Go Round from Glasgow to Thurso
Seven singers, a piano and a carpet are the basic ingredients of Scottish Opera's small touring company, Opera Go
Round. Their spring tour of the Highlands and Lowlands of Scotland reaches the parts that other tourers tremble at.
Joyce MacMillan catches up with them as their bus arrives on Islay in the Inner Hebrides on a journey which takes in village halls, schools and even the odd distillery, and the opera? What better than
Verdi's Macbeth.
