The Taconic Opera<\/strong> summer program for emerging opera singers, New York Opera Conservatory (NYOC)<\/strong>, offers you an opportunity to hear the upcoming generation of professionally trained singers as they gain valuable experience perfecting their craft in a leading role. Established in 2018, the NYOC helps to fill an unmet need among trained singers to gain hands-on experience through actual performance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Each event in the series listed below \u2013 one tragedy and one comedy – will have a different cast, making every performance completely unique from all the others! \u00a0Each performance includes the complete opera and is semi-staged (costumes, props).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

July Opera:\u00a0 Un Ballo in Maschera (A Masked Ball)<\/em> – Verdi<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

What can happen when a king falls in love with the wife of one of his advisers?\u00a0 What does he do when a fortune teller reveals that she loves him too?\u00a0 Based on an actual event in Sweden, come and watch his unraveling in a dramatic yet gently comedic way.\u00a0 Since it\u2019s Verdi, expect some outstanding arias and ensembles.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dates:\u00a0 <\/strong>Wednesday, July 9, 7:00 pm<\/p>\n

Friday, July 11, 7:00 pm<\/p>\n

Sunday, July 13, 3:00 pm<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

August Opera: La Cenerentola<\/em> (Cinderella)<\/em> \u2013 Rossini<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

In this dramatic variation of the fairy tale, the Wicked Stepmother is replaced by a stepfather, the Fairy Godmother is replaced by a philosopher and tutor to \u00a0Prince Charming, and Cinderella is identified not by a glass slipper but by a silver ring.\u00a0 It\u2019s not the Disney story: the supernatural elements that traditionally characterize the Cinderella story were removed from Rossini\u2019s libretto because they couldn\u2019t be staged in his day. However, Taconic Opera will make it just as entertaining and endearing to watch!<\/p>\n
