Mission
PRODUCE CLASSIC OPERA PERFORMANCES
Program accomplishments
- OPERA WEST! OF SANTA FE PRESENTS FULLY STAGED OPERAS WITH CHAMBER ORCHESTRA AS WELL AS PERFORMING FESTIVAL CONCERTS OF FAMOUS OPERAS. OUR MISSION IS "OPERA FOR ALL" IN 2024 FUNDING WAS VERY SMALL, SO OPERA WEST DID A FEW SMALL PERFORMANCES TO SENIOR CENTERS IN SANTA FE. ALL THE WHILE WORKING TO BUILD OUR COMPANY BACK UP AND RAISE FUNDS FOR 2025 WE PERFORMED WERE ABLE TO PRODUCE A SUCCESSFUL PUCCINI FESTIVAL IN SPRING A FULLY STAGED OPERA "GIANNI SCHICCHI" IN OCTOBER WITH CHAMBER ORCHESTRA AND WONDERFUL PROFESSIONAL SINGERS ALL FOR TICKET PRICES STARTING AT $25 FOR ADULTS AND $15 FOR CHILDREN. WE ARE DEDICATED TO INCLUDING CHILDREN IN OUR PERFORMANCES AND INVITE THE CHILDREN TO COME TO DRESS REHEARSALS FOR FREE. WE ARE HAPPY TO REACH THE DIVERSE COMMUNITY AND WE ALSO CAST BOTH LOCAL AND NATIONAL SINGERS WHO ARE INTERSECTIONALITY DIVERSE. WE ARE PLANNING TO DO A FRENCH FESTIVAL FEATURING FABULOUS DUETS, SCENES FROM CARMEN, SAMSON AND DALILAH, LES TROYANS, FAUST AND MORE. WE ALSO PRESENT OPERAS AND FESTIVALS THAT ARE 2 HOURS OR LESS. OUR AUDIENCE HAS GROWN AND WE ARE THRILLED TO HAVE FAMILIES AND THAT OUR TICKETS ARE NOT PROHIBITIVE TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO COME. HOWEVER WITH LOWER TICKETS AND LESS FUNDING AVAILABLE WE ARE IN NEED OF MORE DONORS, SPONSORSHIPS AND GRANTS.
