“Leon Botstein, and his annual opera production at Bard, seem more invaluable by the year.” —The New York Times
The SummerScape Opera program, under the baton of Maestro Leon Botstein, offers artists and audiences the opportunity to discover fascinating works outside the standard repertoire. Engaging acclaimed professional artists from around the world, the opera program fulfills a vital mission of excavating rarely seen works that are almost never performed in the United States. Selections heard at the Fisher Center are singular experiences and often once-in-a-lifetime cultural adventures.
