CITY of Newport Business Club is confident its latest event will be met with a chorus of approval.
It has linked up with Welsh National Opera for its next meeting later this month.
During a taster session, the company will demonstrate how the performance skills of an opera singer can be used to best effect in everyday business.
"Newport Business Club has gained quite a reputation over the years for coming up with some unusual and off-the-wall ideas to enthuse our members," said chairman Neil Underwood.
"I am quietly confident that this is another which will hit the right note with businesses."
He explained the idea was that WNO would show various tips and techniques such as how to prepare, how to deal with nerves and the best use of voice and body language to connect with an audience.
