Seattle Opera’s 2011-2012 Season

July 30- August 20 2011: Porgy and Bess
October 15-29 2011: Carmen
January 14-28 2012: Attila
February 25- March 10 2012: Orpheus and Eurydice
May 5-19 2012: Madama Butterfly

There are five operas scheduled for next season at Seattle Opera and again we have 3 conductors returning and 2 debuts. John DeMain conducts Gershwin, Carlo Montanaro conducts Verdi, and Gary Thor Wedow conducts Gluck. Pier Giorgio Morandi and Julian Kovatchev have their first performances in Seattle, conducting Carmen and Butterfly respectively. As for singers, Joseph Calleja is Don José, William Burden Orpheus, John Relyea Attila, and Patricia Racette is Butterfly. I am especially curious about José Maria Condemi's production of the Gluck opera.

    Hi Charlise: The dates for Attila are actually Jan 14 – Jan 28, 2012 … and no you didn’t make a typo the dates were also wrong on the Seattle Opera website as well (they have since been corrected).

    I am definitely going to see the Gluck and Attila, probably with you, Narwhal, if we can somehow manage to get our calendars coordinated. HUMPH
    Maybe Ernesto will let us crash with him!

    Thank you! I was wondering about that! January is better for me anyway, since there is no conflict with SF Opera as far as schedules go.
