Gotham Chamber Opera

Where opera gets intimate.

Gotham Chamber Opera will celebrate its 10th anniversary by looking both to the future and to the past. Returning to a two-production schedule for the first time since 2008, the company will kick off the season with the world premiere of Dark Sisters, an opera by composer Nico Muhly and librettist Stephen Karam commissioned for the occasion. A co-commission and co-production of Gotham Chamber Opera, Music-Theatre Group, and the Opera Company of Philadelphia, Dark Sisters will premiere at the Gerald W. Lynch Theater at John Jay College in November 2011. Then, in April 2012, Gotham Chamber Opera will revive Mozart’s Il sogno di Scipione, which announced the company’s arrival on the New York cultural scene ten years ago. The original creative team of director Christopher Alden, set designer Andrew Cavanaugh Holland, costume designer Fabio Toblini, and lighting designer Allen Hahn will be reunited for the production, to be conducted by Gotham Chamber Opera's Founding Artistic Director Neal Goren, at The Gerald W. Lynch Theater, John Jay College.
