ABOUT US
The
Green Mountain Opera Festival, now in its
7th
year, is truly a unique gem of a festival based in the Mad River Valley
(Central Vermont). It has built a reputation such that now it is considered
one of New England's premier opera producers.
Sponsored
by the Green Mountain Cultural Center
[non-profit
501(c)(3)], the festival presents
professional opera productions at the historic
Barre Opera House and
several performances at other venues in the Mad River Valley. Audience members
are warm and extremely enthusiastic including visitors from Montreal,
Boston, New York and New Hampshire as well as people from the entire state
of Vermont.
Our mission is to enrich the cultural scene of Central Vermont by consistently presenting high quality professional
opera productions and concerts. The GMOF also firmly believes in
supporting and
working with Vermont's vast artistic community.
Every year this festival grows
stronger and stronger. We are proud to be a professional company
member of
Opera America. The main reason for the
festival's success is directly linked to the very strong support from its community. A huge thank you goes to all dedicated volunteers and generous donors.
Spanning almost the entire month of June, festival activities include an Emerging Artist Program, free open rehearsals, various concerts both
operatic and broadway style, free master classes with renown opera stars
and of course a fully staged, costumed opera
production accompanied by the Green Mountain Opera
Orchestra and Chorus.
We look
forward to welcoming you at one of our many events.
