Dallas Opera - La Traviata
A majestic example of the power of opera, Verdi's heartbreaking story touches on class, reputation, and devotion, just a few of the things that concern the famed courtesan Violetta Valery and her ardent lover Alfredo Germont. Taken from the novel La Dame aux Camelias by Alexandre Dumas, it was first performed in 1853 and has since never been absent from the repertoire. Featuring the iconic Dallas Opera Orchestra and Chorus, the story of La Traviata returns to the stage in 2024!
Dallas Opera - La Boheme
Since its premiere in 1896, La Bohme has grown into one of the most beloved operas in the world, with only Puccini's other masterwork, Madama Butterfly, rivaling it for sheer popularity. Its captivating romance and heart-wrenching tragedy are punctuated by the great composer's soaring arias and glorious duets, masterfully fusing music and storytelling that plucks at the audience's heartstrings. Pack tissues for Dallas Opera's latest production, featuring Uzbekistan-born tenor Bekhzod Davronov, American lyric soprano Sylvia D'Eramo, Japanese baritone Takaoki Onishi, and American soprano Emily Pogorelc making their Dallas Opera debuts.
Dallas Opera - Orpheus and Eurydice
Acclaimed stage director Joachim Schamberger directs a thrilling revival of Gluck's epic reform opera Orpheus and Eurydice with Dallas Opera! Conducted by Emmanuel Villaume, the work is a masterpiece of the 18th century opera canon, as music drives the story forward with some of the composer's best loved works, from the beloved aria 'J'ai perdu mon Eurydice' and the romantic 'Objet de mon amour'.
Dallas Opera - Pelleas and Melisande
After discovering a beautiful and entrancing woman whilst lost in the forest, Prince Golaud decides to take her back to his castle as his new bride in this dreamlike love story by Debussy. But, to his surprise, her arrival does not go smoothly. As his winning younger brother Pelleas and the mysterious Melisande grow closer, Goland becomes obsessed with trying to catch them out, leading to an outcome befitting of the kind of man who would take a strange forest woman home to be his wife without consulting said woman in the process.
