Glimmerglass Opera Orchestra

Established in 1975, Glimmerglass Opera was founded through the efforts of residents of Cooperstown, New York, musicians, artists, and lovers of the art form, to bring opera to their community. Its first season brought four staged performances of Puccini’s La Bohème to a local audience of 1,200 at Cooperstown High School. The company has since grown to international stature and now offers more than 40 performances of four operas in repertory during its eight-week season, attracting audiences of nearly 40,000 from around the world. The company’s Alice Busch Opera Theater opened in 1987 and is located along the shores of Otsego Lake, the “Glimmerglass” of James Fenimore Cooper’s Leatherstocking Tales. Glimmerglass Opera established its acclaimed Young American Artists Program in 1988, giving young American singers the opportunity to work with some of the finest conductors, directors and coaches in the country. The company has attracted directors and designers of the highest international reputation, and its productions have been seen at numerous other companies, including New York City Opera, Boston Lyric Opera, Florida Grand Opera, Cincinnati Opera and Houston Grand Opera.
