On Jan. 24, Opera Naples’ resident artists will take to the stage for a captivating night of vocal artistry.
“We will have singers coming and singing all of the great opera repertoire that people love,” said Executive Director Melanie Kalnins.
“An Evening of Opera’s Greatest Hits” will provide a fresh take on beloved arias, other timeless classics and scenes from the operatic canon.
“We will be performing in our beautiful 320-seat black box theater at our Wang Opera Center, which seems very appropriate given that it's our 20th anniversary season,” Kalnins added.
It promises to be the perfect prelude to Opera Naples’ sixth annual Festival Under the Stars, which will be integrated this year with the second annual Luciano Pavarotti Foundation Opera Naples International Voice Competition.
