MIAMI LYRIC OPERA HISTORY:
|
President and Artistic Director |
It is a great
honor for me to introduce Miami Lyric Opera, a Company created
to satisfy operatic needs of Opera lovers and the public at
large in Miami area and to provide an accessible alternative for
the enjoyment of the marvelous magic of the Opera.
The Company made its official presentation to the public on
October 31st. 2004 with a successful Gala Opera Concert at
Manuel Artime Theater. Since then, year after year MLO has
successful presented several full stage opera productions
including La Traviata, Cavalleria, Pagliacci, Don Pasquale,
L’Elisir d’amore (Elixir of love), La Boheme, Don Pasquale,
Rigoletto, Lucia, Madama Butterfly and Gala Concerts. A long
list of fine singers, conductors and artists from South Florida
and the rest of the Nation have contributed to the success
achieved in the four consecutive seasons since the company’s
creation.
MLO’s 2008 season has just concluded and looking forward to a
great and challenging 2009 season that will include new
repertoire for the company such as I Puritani, Suor Angelica and
Carmen. In addition will be repeated Cavalleria Rusticana, L’
Elisir d’amore and other. Well selected artists and great young
talents will participate in the season as well as a professional
group of directors and orchestra conductors.
Miami Lyric Opera is committed in creating opportunities for new
talents and prepare them for mayor operatic venues while provide
opportunities to opera singers, choristers, musicians, stage
directors, conductors and other, to work with enthusiasm,
dedication and creativity.
Miami Lyric Opera Inc. is a Non-Profit Organization registered
in the State of Florida and its Directors are a group of
enthusiastic Opera lovers with a large trajectory in opera,
music, business and other field of activities who donate their
time and talent to this project.
Thank very much for your sympathy and support.
Sincerely
Raffaele Cardone
