Is our love true—or is it just a show? When two couples set out to answer this question, a reckless wager and some truly questionable decision-making lead to a whirlwind of temptation and chaos—what could possibly go wrong? With a masterful score by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Così fan tutte presents an eye-opening, honest look at the fickle nature of love, fidelity, and the complex dynamics of human relationships. In the end, audiences will have to decide for themselves what’s real, what’s performance, and whether anyone comes out unscathed.

Where love is concerned, too much is not even enough. Rosina is young, clever, and wealthy, but her greedy guardian desires her and her fortune for himself. Using her wits to outsmart him and find her true love, she enlists Figaro, the mischievous and well-connected local barber, who has more than a few tricks up his sleeve. Plans go awry (resulting in several close shaves) against the backdrop of Gioachino Rossini’s iconic score as romance and a little old-fashioned trickery combine in one of the best-loved comedies of all time.

The Barber Of Seville

Who was Florence Price, beyond the music? Prolific American composer Florence Price made history as the first Black woman to have a symphony performed by a major U.S. orchestra. In this world premiere from MN Opera’s New Works Initiative, My Name is Florence was inspired by writings and correspondence unearthed in the backyard of her family home. This chamber opera composed by B.E. Boykin to a libretto by Harrison David Rivers presents vignettes from Price’s life that bring into focus the impact of family, legacy, and the transformative power of a seat in front of the piano. With warmth and humor, My Name is Florence explores the complexities of identity, generational connection, and ultimately the power of music to transform. It is a celebration of Price’s enduring legacy in music and a reclamation of the space she occupies within the American musical canon.

My Name is Florence

Can one choice change everything? Edgar, just the second opera that Giacomo Puccini ever composed, tells the story of a man torn between the promise of virtue and the allure of vice, where love and desire collide with devastating consequences. Moments of striking lyricism underscore a tale of indecision, self-delusion, and betrayal that leads to ruin. With the MN Opera Orchestra and MN Opera Chorus on stage behind a cast of singers, this rare concert presentation offers a tantalizing glimpse into the mind of a master still discovering his voice, just a few years before his greatest triumphs.
