BIZARRE: A prestigious opera company stays in tune with wireless solution | Mind Blowing Facts

The Riedel Bolero, used for a touring opera.

Based in Cardiff’s landmark Wales Millennium Centre, Welsh National Opera (WNO) is one of the most prolific operatic ensembles in the UK, with a national and international touring schedule that consists of an average of 120 performances per year. In need of a new in-house communication system, WNO recently invested in a full Riedel Bolero digital wireless intercom system, specified by Autograph Sound.

“We spend around five to seven weeks, twice a year, at our home in the Millennium Centre, producing our operas. From there, we head off on tour for around seven weeks at a time,” explained Benjamin Naylor, head of lighting and sound at WNO. “We’re on the move a lot and require a communication system that works for us, not against us.”
