" Bel Cantanti reminds us that our region's smaller companies are arguably smarter, better stewards of the art form, spending more wisely than the big-budget houses, presenting sturdy, smaller-scaled evenings of opera..."
Tom Huizenga. Washington Post, September 27, 2010Join Bel Cantanti Opera Company in its February production of Mozart's opera, The Abduction from the Seraglio! This timeless classic follows the whirlwind escape of three European travelers from a Turkish harem. With layers of comedy and tragedy, beautiful music, and a captivating tale, Mozart's masterpiece is still beloved by audiences today. This brilliant opera will be performed in German with English supertitles, incredible singers, and with chamber orchestra directed by Dr. Katerina Souvorova.
