Opera Steamboat’s summer season kicks off next week, this year with more music than ever before.
“We haven’t had fully staged operas since 2019,” said Andres Cladera, general and artistic director of Opera Steamboat. “We decided to do more opera than ever. People need more opportunities to get out and enjoy concerts.”
While the organization would typically host two or three operas per summer, this year, they will host five, in addition to several concerts.
The season begins Tuesday with a vocal and piano concert by Steven LaBrie and Adam Nielsen titled “Mexico, Mi Tierra Querida.”
Additional concerts include an arias and ensembles concert, music by Mozart and Nyman, and a free Wednesday morning concert during Music on the Green at the Yampa River Botanic Park.
