How did ELMO start?
"Quality live music is life enhancing and should be available to everyone"
Emma Dogliani
ELMO is interested in making quality live music for the people – we work with a range of musicians (for instance by combining opera with pop singers) and actively cast our performers from diverse community backgrounds. We aim to reach people who often lack access to quality live performances including inside prison.
