A thrilling experience unlike any other. And that’s what Florida Grand Opera promises you in the 2017-18 Season. We are going on a dramatic journey with four of the most exciting women in opera. And we want you to join us. The season opens with one of the great bel canto classics, Lucia di Lammermoor—a haunting Gothic story about a young Scottish woman, bullied by her abusive family, who sacrifices her true love and descends into madness. We then move to ancient Jerusalem for Richard Strauss’s Salome, the tale of the Judean princess who goes to horrifying lengths to get her way—an opera that still has the power to jolt today’s audiences. Next, we head to the depths with Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice, with the legendary musician and poet braving the perils of the Underworld to rescue his beloved Euridice. Finally, we will travel through the Amazon with the heroine of We will bring you dazzling productions cast with world-class artists.

SAVE UP TO 20%* TICKETS: WWW.FGO.ORG | 1.800.741.1010 WELCOME To theWelcome, 2017–18 Season SusanDear friends: letter of Florida Grand Opera! Five years ago, when I came to Florida Grand Opera, I was charged with reinvigorating the company’s repertoire and connecting with the audience in new and meaningful ways. I believe that our 2017–18 Season will possess the greatest depth and breadth of any season we’ve produced yet. There’s something to appeal to a wide range of tastes: the thrill of Italian bel canto with Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor... the steamy eroticism of Richard Strauss’s Salome... the Classical grace and intimate drama of Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice... the gorgeous lyricism of Daniel Catán’s Florencia en el Amazonas. Whichever operas you choose, you can’t go wrong: all of them will be brought to life by some of the finest artists on the current international scene. But there’s more to FGO than what’s happening on the main stage. South Florida audiences will also get the full range of the FGO experiences with our SongFest Recital series, featuring gifted members of our Young Artist Program; Community Conversations series, which explore an opera in depth; and Opera Concert series and Family Days that will open up the world of opera to all audiences. But the season can’t happen without you. Come join us—won’t you? Sincerely, Scene from: Orfeo ed Euridice, Act II Photo: © Elise Bakketun for Seattle Opera Susan T.
