Historical Note Formed in 1974 out of the dissolution of the San Diego Opera Guild (1950-1974) and San Diego Opera, Inc. (1966-74), the San Diego Opera Association (SDOA) assumed the responsibilities of both organizations. It is responsible for promoting greater public interest and support of opera, and for supporting the production and presentation of opera in San Diego. In 1974 the SDOA introduced public memberships, which helped the company to expand, and gave members the privilege of belonging to regional opera guilds around San Diego, based on their place of residence. Governed by the Council of Guilds, these regional guilds enabled the SDOA to continue its community education and outreach work, and to build a fundraising network to support opera in San Diego. In 1976, with the passing of founding Director Walter Herbert, the SDOA hired General Director Tito Capobianco, formerly of the New York City Opera. Working with Capobianco, the SDOA during this period worked to develop numerous educational and outreach programs, and organized special events which frequently complemented opera productions and series, such as the Verdi Festival and Fanfare. In 1983, the SDOA hired Ian Campbell as General Director, and continues its outreach, education, and support work with Campbell, including the Operation: Opera program, which brings Opera to 100,000 children in San Diego County and Northern Mexico.

Stephanie has created a concert entitled Johnny Mercer: America’s Lyricist. “This concert is a musical and historical look at the words and songs of Johnny Mercer and those who influenced and partnered with him, from the early years of Jazz, to Tin Pan Alley, and eventually, Hollywood,” shares Stephanie. “Mercer’s extraordinary abilities as a wordsmith and performer cannot be underestimated, as the songs and stories will tell you. Mercer was a born communicator, who had an innate understanding of how to connect with his audience- a perfect subject for a recital/cabaret, my absolute favorite kind of performance, one that establishes an easy, person to person connection with the audience through shared emotional experiences.” Stephanie Blythe made her Company debut in 2014’s A Masked Ball as Ulrica, sang in the Company’s Verdi Requiem that same year, and returned in recital later that fall for We’ll Meet Again: The Songs of Kate Smith.

  • Opera Warhorses Interview
    Rising Stars: An Interview with Raymond Aceto, Part I February 26th, 2010 [Note from William: Over the past several months, I have posted occasional interviews with opera singers and other artists, whose careers are obviously in their ascendancy, reflecting worldwide interest in securing their talents for future opera seasons. The current interview is with Raymond Aceto, the basso cantante graduate of the Metropolitan Opera Company's Lindemann Young Artists Development Program. I interviewed him last month in Houston singing Baron Scarpia in the new Houston Grand Opera production of Puccini's "Tosca" and again last week in San Diego, where he sang Zaccaria in Verdi's "Nabucco" for the San Diego Opera. The "Houston" half of the interview is published here. The remainder will be posted at a later date.] * * * * * Wm: How did you become interested in opera? RA: It’s a funny answer. I grew up in Brunswick Ohio, outside of Cleveland. I went to Brunswick High School, where I was in the band and choir and also sang in a rock band. I have a collection of guitars. I determined that I would pursue music in college. I was admitted to the Bowling Green State University (near Toledo) and took the music courses. There, I had a wonderful voice teacher, Andreas Poulimenos, who helped me discover that I have more voice than I thought I had. Bowling Green offers extensive training in both music and the performing arts. I switched into a performance major and fell in love with the idea of operatic performance. I was then accepted into the Metropolitan Opera’s Lindemann Young Artists Development Program.
