Opera Holland Park General Director to retire

After 31 years with the organisation, MICHAEL VOLPE has decided to step down at the end of September.

JAMES CLUTTON will be appointed Chief Executive and Director at that time. A Deputy Chief Executive will be recruited in the coming months.

Volpe founded Opera Holland Park in 1996, having worked with its then-owners The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea since 1989. In 2015, he was instrumental in transitioning the company to become an independent charity.
