OperaBaltimore

Hello everyone!  If you are on Facebook and haven’t found us there yet, search for OperaBaltimore (no space) and become a fan.  We asked everyone last week when we launched the page what American operas would you like to see performed in Baltimore.  We hope to perform an American opera each season and we’d like your input as we begin creating our 5 year plan.  Here, as of today, is the tally on what people would like to see:
