Podcasts
In order to help you better appreciate the operas in our 2009 International
Season, the Education and Outreach Department has developed a series of
introductory podcasts hosted by Nicolas Reveles. These 15 to 20 minute
‘conversations’ can be enjoyed by opera fans as well as those who are new to the
art form. Informal yet informative, this is a great way to prepare to come
see the operas during our season.
OperaTalk! with Nicolas Reveles
Join Dr. Nicolas Reveles, San Diego Opera's Geisel Director of Education, for
these fascinating, half-hour overviews of our five productions. He'll take you
on an intriguing journey though the story, music and history of each opera.
You'll pick up rich insight into the structure and composition of the music,
along with recommendations of the best recordings. It's a wonderful prelude to
your opera experience and a great way to pick up some tidbits to impress your
friends at intermission!
San Diego Opera Spotlight
Produced by San Diego Opera and UCSD-TV, the award-winning San Diego
Opera Spotlight gives you a unique and
entertaining look behind-the-scenes of each of San Diego Opera's five mainstage
productions. You'll see how the singers, directors, conductor and crew work
together to create each opera, get a sneak peek at rehearsal footage and hear
exclusive interviews with the stars.
"Music Worth Seeing"
San Diego Opera's motto is "We Make Music Worth Seeing" – and here's a chance
