Much of what we took for granted, including the highest ever level of our economy and the lowest ever level of unemployment, suggested a bright future for the performing arts. We at Pittsburgh Festival Opera were especially optimistic, having attracted the internationally known mezzo-soprano, Marianne Cornetti, as our Artistic Director. Marianne and our staff saw performing arts companies around the world canceling their seasons due to the pandemic. There was no way that, with the restrictions placed upon social gatherings, the remarkable schedule of events comprising our 2020 season could take place as planned. Our Artistic Director, staff, and teaching faculty reimagined the season’s program by postponing our main stage operas to next season and reworking the 14 elements which comprise this program into an online format. We welcome our audiences, new and old, to the odd world of 2020. Our Board of Directors and I hope that you enjoy the wonderful world of opera as it exists in this new format. Eugene N. Myers, M.D., FRCS Edin (Hon) President, Pittsburgh Festival Opera 3 From the Artistic Director Hi dear friends! When life gives you lemons, make Limoncello! We are living through a pandemic. We have embraced it, we are challenged by it, but we won’t give in to it. I am so happy to announce to you the debut of UNSTAGED, our online festival. From July 10-26, you will find 12 wonderful events that have been programmed to broadcast on our original festival dates before COVID-19. There is something for everyone: Cornetti’s Candid Concert & Live Afterparty with Anna Singer; 3 orchestra showcases; Rusalka: A Mermaid's Tale; I, Too, Sing presented by Candace Burgess; Leitmotif, Walking through Wagner; conversations with artists, a Composer Spotlight with Mark Adamo; our Young Artists and our voice faculty for our newly renamed Hans and Leslie Fleischner Online Young Artists Program, and our fun Finale with Anna Singer and Rob Frankenberry sending our virtual online festival to a close. I hope you will enjoy UNSTAGED, our online festival - pandemic style! Marianne Cornetti Artistic Director 4 From the Executive Director 2020. In a few years, we will look back on this pivotal year and remember the difficulties and disruptions to our daily lives and the seeds of change that were planted. For those of us who make a living in the opera business, 2020 represents a seismic shift in how we are able to disseminate operatic content, stay relevant to you and our community, and provide opportunities to opera artists across the industry - not to mention being interesting and engaging enough for you to want to click on us and stick with us. What you are about to see in UNSTAGED is work specifically created and designed to be performed for an online audience on a small screen .I'm proud of the staff at Pittsburgh Festival Opera and the artistic leadership of Marianne Cornetti. UNSTAGED represents the hope that we all need that we will once again assemble in the theater to experience the power of the human voice. UNSTAGED represents the resilience of your Pittsburgh Festival Opera Board of Directors, donors, supporters, and staff - the proof that we will not let a pandemic stop us from communicating the beauty that happens when people work together toward a common goal. UNSTAGED is an opportunity for you to get a little closer to the people who make opera a wonderful community - and by joining us today, you help us feel essential. We hope that you will find it in your heart to donate to Pittsburgh Festival Opera during these most challenging times. When we were forced to cancel our 2020 season, all of our ticket revenue evaporated. All of the content you experience in UNSTAGED is completely free, but that means that Pittsburgh Festival Opera receives no earned income for this one- of-a-kind experience. When you tune-in to the Festival Finale 'telethon' on July 26, please help support our return to the stage in 2021 with your financial gift, or you can donate anytime by clicking the donate button on our website. Thank you for watching us and be sure to share this website with all your friends and most of all, please stay safe and healthy as you enjoy our Festival!

    1 FEBRUARY 2016 CAST AMENDMENT IL TRITTICO (Giacomo Puccini) 25, 29 Februry; 3, 5, 8 and 15 March at 6.30pm To her great disappointment, Austrian soprano Martina Serafin has been forced to withdraw from her role debut as Giorgetta in Il tabarro due to an injury suffered before Christmas. She has made good progress since the accident, but unfortunately she is still not adequately mobile to undertake this role for The Royal Opera. The role of Giorgetta will now be sung by American soprano Patricia Racette . Patricia Racette made her Royal Opera debut in 1996 as Mimì ( La bohème ). She has previously sung the role of Giorgetta for Theater an der Wien, and will perform the role in Rome in April 2016. Her other recent engagements include Nedda ( Pagliacci ) for the Metropolitan Opera, New York, Katerina Ismailova ( Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk ) for English National Opera and Elle ( La Voix humaine ) for Chicago Opera Theater. The rest of the cast remains unchanged, with Italian baritone Lucio Gallo as Michele, American tenor Carl Tanner as Luigi, Italian tenor Carlo Bosi as Tinca, British bass Jeremy White as Talpa, Korean tenor and Jette Parker Young Artist David Junghoon Kim as Ballad Seller, Russian mezzo-soprano Irina Mishura as Frugola, Australian soprano and Jette Parker Young Artist Lauren Fagan and Portguese tenor Luis Gomes as the Lovers and Italian conductor Nicola Luisotti .
