Koonce Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:50:27 +0000 http://www.operabaltimore.org/?p=185#comment-822 I go to a lot of opera in Baltimore, but I have not been to any events at the theaters listed here, except for one guitar recital at the BMA Theater. I don't think that one would be suitable for a large opera production. You might find comments about its acoustics elsewhere on the web. Hippodrome would be low on my list after reading that its acoustics are not great for opera, and a company that plans to perform there soon reportedly will use microphones to compensate. (Any news about the old cinema in north Baltimore that was being considered for refurbishment for the performing arts?)
