Utah Opera Artistic Director Christopher McBeth just announced Utah Opera’s complete 2013-2014 season on Classical 89.1 FM, during which the company will celebrate 35 years of opera in Utah.
The new season will feature five productions from October 2013 through May 2014: Richard Strauss’ "Salome," Kathleen Cahill’s "Fatal Song," Giuseppe Verdi’s "La Traviata," Giacomo Puccini’s "Turandot" and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s "Abduction from the Seraglio."
These productions will be performed at the Capitol Theatre, Abravanel Hall and the Jeanne Wagner Theater in Salt Lake City, due to Capitol Theatre renovations taking place in the fall of 2013.
Season tickets for the 2013-2014 Utah Opera season will go on sale February 6 and can be purchased by calling 801-533-NOTE (6683) or by visiting www.utahopera.org. Seating is assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Current Utah Opera subscribers will receive renewal forms via mail in early February.
