New Jersey Opera’s 2007 Summer Season

From the merry high jinks of spirited love play to the inner sancta of sacred love, New Jersey Opera’s Summer Season 2007 serves up some of operas and operetta’s most lovely treats. The season features fully professional casts consisting of singers who have performed throughout the country and the world, including New York City Opera, Washington National Opera, Lyric Opera of Chicago, Arizona Opera, Santa Fe Opera, Los Angeles Opera, Glimmerglass Opera, Florida Grand Opera, Dallas Opera and Prague State Opera.

The path to true love includes Mozart’s Die Zauberflote (The Magic Flute), Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Pirates of Penzance and Charles Gounod’s Romeo et Juliette. As in past seasons, the summer season also includes concerts of operatic scenes, featuring portions of such operas as La Boheme, Lucia di Lammermooor, Ariadne auf Naxos, Don Giovanni and Les contes d’Hoffman.
