Speaking by video from Stieren Orchestra Hall, Meya expressed delight over the future season, stating, “We will bring five new productions to the stage, each carefully chosen. The piece marks the second operatic collaboration between Spears and Smith, whose Castor and Patience will receive its world premiere at Cincinnati Opera this July. Smith titled The Righteous, which will explore the intersection between religious faith and political power. In 2024, the company has commissioned a new opera by two of America’s most exciting talents, composer Gregory Spears and former US Poet Laureate and Pulitzer Prize-winner Tracy K. Opening the opera’s 66th Festival Season will be Puccini’s Tosca and Wagner’s The Flying Dutchman, followed by Debussy’s Pelléas et Mélisande, Dvořák’s Rusalka and Monteverdi’s Orfeowith a world premiere orchestration by American composer Nico Muhly.

Meya announced today the repertory and casting for the company’s 2023 Season and revealed its 19th world premiere slated for 2024.
