Boston Youth Symphony Orchestras (BYSO), under the direction of Music Director Frederico Cortese, presents Bellini’s Norma, an opera famously at Harvard University’s Sanders Theater on January 21.
BYSO, the only youth orchestra in the US to perform full-length operas, will debut their first such performance by famed Italian composer Vincenzo Bellini in this special one-performance-only event.
Led by Cortese, Stage Director Joshua Major and Chorus Master Charles F. Prestinari along with the Boston Youth Symphony, the opera marks the 19th in BYSO’s history, which continually highlights the training, understanding and appreciation of the full range of classical repertoire that is often overlooked in the musical training of young players. Previous opera performances have included works by Mozart, Puccini, Tchaikovsky and Verdi.
This performance of Norma is suitable for children ages 10 and older.
