Nashville OperaPhoto: Peyton Hoge
In a season marked by uncertainty, Nashville Opera CEO and artistic director John Hoomes remains characteristically focused and optimistic.
“It’s been such a challenging time for everyone in the arts world, but we’ve done our best to stay strong and keep moving forward,” says Hoomes, who has served as Nashville Opera’s artistic director since 1995. “Heading into this fall, we were determined not to surrender to this pandemic. We have a wonderful Opera Guild and incredible supporters, so knew we just had to get creative. So yes, our season has looked a little different this year, but we’re still here. We were able to keep all of our staff on board, and we were able to continue producing good work this fall and I’m really proud of that.”
