Paul Austin Kelly and
his family have put down roots in their adopted hometown of Lewes
ever since making his debut at the nearby Glyndebourne Festival Opera
in 1995. Mr. Kelly is always eager to contribute to the local community
and sees the local library as a vital resource, particularly for the
many musicians who live in the area. The Lewes Library Fund committee
seeks to raise money for the building of the new public library in
Lewes and its subsequent support.
Paul Austin Kelly's recent
operatic engagements have included his Welsh National Opera debut
in Mozart's Cos̉ fan tutte and his acclaimed return to Glimmerglass
Opera in the title role of Haydn's Orlando Paladino. An artist of
diverse talents, Mr. Kelly is also an accomplished singer/songwriter
of music for children. His latest CD release "Hello Michael Rosen"
has received critical acclaim and features the original music of Paul
Austin Kelly and the poetry of acclaimed British author Michael Rosen.
