Chautauqua Opera Company’s 2024 Season

Chautauqua Opera Company’s 2024 season will feature two productions. Opening the season is Love and Longing by the Lake, a trio of chamber operas, including two world premieres from The Summer Place, music by Rene Orth and Kamala Sankaram and libretto by Jerre Dye. Four performances of this triple bill will be staged down the hill from Chautauqua’s Athenaeum Hotel. Engelbert Humperdinck’s beloved Hansel and Gretel will receive one performance in the Amphitheater with the Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra. Chautauqua Opera Conservatory will also mount two productions. Nino Rota’s I Due Timidi will be staged in the Amphitheater in collaboration with the Music School Festival Orchestra (MFSO), conducted by Music Director Timothy Muffitt, with Handel’s Alcina rounding out the Conservatory season in McKnight Hall.
