Odyssey Opera

Odyssey Opera is an opera company based in Boston, Massachusetts. Founded in 2013 by Gil Rose,[1] it typically begins its season with a concert performance of a large, rarely heard opera in the fall, continuing the season with fully staged renditions of early, classical, and contemporary opera.[2] The company is known for performing "offbeat, neglected repertoire, with a special nod to those never, or rarely, performed in Boston"[3] and New England.

Ideally, every September I'd like to do something like Rienzi: a large concert opera that nobody in Boston could stage. Then we'd turn to staged operas but on a more intimate scale and in a festival format: three or four titles presented over the course of several weeks in May or June, representing a cross-section of styles, from early music to contemporary.
