2018-2019 Operas within Driving Distance
May 23. Offenbach: Tales of Hoffmann
The Hoffmann, Dmitry Korchak, is a very hot property, so you
may now make up your mind bout his talent. The same goes for
Olga Peretyatko, who sings all three heroines instead of the more
expected Olympia only.

April 25. Puccini: Turandot
A reprise of the broadcast of several years ago with Nina Stemme as the title character. Marco Berti and Anita Hartig are pictured as Calaf and Liu during Non Piangere, Liu.
