October 18-26 2008: Samson et Dalila
November 15-23 2008: The Grapes of Wrath
February 7-15 2009: Don Pasquale
March 28- April 5 2009: La Bohème
May 2-10 2009: L'Italiana in Algeri

Mezzo-soprano Stephanie Blythe is singing Dalila, which should be interesting. Vivica Genaux and William Burden sing the lead roles in L'Italiana, as they did in San Francisco a few seasons ago, and it is the same cute Santa Fe production as we saw here. Former Adler Fellow Sean Pannikar will sing Jim Casy in The Grapes of Wrath.

    Hey–thanks for the mention! Stephanie Blythe’s Dalila is her debut in that role. She’s also making her debut with us as Amneris opening March 29, 2008. Sean Panikkar is also an alumnus of the Pittsburgh Opera Center. And I’m an alumna of Merola (1984).
