Boston Summer Opera

HUGE thank you to David Small for leading a wonderful masterclass with BSO singers! ❤️

And a huge congrats to our brave, beautiful performers: Anna Joy Gaddie, Kayla Kovacs, Abigail Orr, and Vanessa Moya, all accompanied by the equally as brave and beautiful Jacob LyteHaven! 🎶

We had a wonderful concert at Lasell Village last night! This was our third year performing for their lovely community, and we are so grateful to continue sharing music with them each summer. ☺️

Congratulations to our performers Emma West, Abby Orr, Kartik Ayysola, and Maria Rabbia, as well as Luca Antonucci for hosting the event!

Today is the LAST day to help Boston Summer Opera win an extra $1,000 through our fiscal sponsor Fractured Atlas’ Spring Match campaign. Every donation made today gives us another entry in the drawing!

And if we break $750 by midnight, our conductor Julian Gau will receive a haircut from The Barber of Seville himself! 💈

Help us cross the finish line:

💈 If Boston Summer Opera raises $750 by THIS FRIDAY, our conductor Julian Gau will receive a haircut from The Barber of Seville himself, baritone Dylan Evans! 💈

Dylan is not an actual barber and has never cut hair before. What could possibly go wrong?

Every donation made by May 8 gives us 1 entry to win a BONUS $1,000 through our fiscal sponsor Fractured Atlas' Spring Match campaign, so even a $1 donation helps!

We’re already over halfway there thanks to some incredible support from our community. 💖

Boston Summer Opera is run by young artists for young artists, creating accessible, community-centered opera right here in Greater Boston. Please donate + share to help us cross the finish line (and give Julian the world's most expensive haircut)!

🚨 Help Boston Summer Opera win $1,000 THIS week! 🚨

Our fiscal sponsor, Fractured Atlas, is giving $1,000 to 20 projects through their Spring Match campaign -- and we could be one of them!

Here's how it works:
🤗 Every donation we receive between May 4-8 = 1 entry into the drawing
💸 ANY dollar amount counts
🎟️ More donations = better chances to win

It was A Bel Canto Evening indeed -- an evening of beautiful singing! Thank you to our lovely audience for supporting us as we kick off the summer a little early. 🌞✨

An additional huge shout-out to our amazing musicians, many of whom performed last-minute additional rep to help cover for singers who had unfortunately fallen ill and were unable to sing. It was a beautiful example of our BSO community in action supporting and uplifting each other. 💖

Stay tuned for videos!
