2008 Season - Le Nozze di Figaro
The 2008 season was a season of firsts; our first season on the historic Salem College Campus, our first two week season, and our first fully staged opera in North Carolina. The excellent facilities at Salem College were a real plus; we had three performing venues and our choice of rehearsal halls. During the first weekend we kicked off our performances with an aria evening and an evening of opera scenes. The second and final weekend we had enthusiastic audiences for three performances of Le Nozze di Figaro, fully staged and performed with piano and harpsichord, in Italian, with English recitatives.
