Opera Aficionado is an exciting suite of programs designed for patrons who are passionate about opera. Aficionado provides an opportunity to learn more, dive deeper, and get an inside look at the world of opera.
As part of Opera Aficionado, our Interactive Lectures Series gives opera-goers around the world a front-row seat to scholarly talks, allowing attendees to dialogue with fellow opera lovers, experts, and special guests. Each month will be focused on a concept or theme relevant to all of us.
As we ring in the new year, Opera Aficionado explores new ways in which the opera world is telling its stories. American composer Nkeiru Okoye, whose works strive to engage communities and affect social change, returns to discuss her newest opera, At the Grande.
