The season has been announced for 2021-2022 at the San Francisco. To reduce the number of people in the house at any given time, they are switching to the kind of season where only one opera plays at a time. This change will result in only 5 operas. We can only hope for a return to normal in the following season.
August 21, 27, 29; September 3, 5 Puccini's Tosca with the new music director Eun Sun Kim and starring Ailyn Pérez, Michael Fabiano, and Alfred Walker. This is an excellent group.
October 14, 17, 20, 22, 26, 30 Beethoven's Fidelio in a new production by Matthew Ozawa, starring Elza van den Heever and Russell Thomas. Music Director Eun Sun Kim conducts. These are also excellent singers. Fidelio is one of my favorites.
November 21, 23, 27; December 1, 3 Mozart's Cosi fan tutte. Henrik Nánási conducts an ensemble featuring Nicole Cabell, Irene Roberts, Benjamin Bliss, John Brancy, Ferruccio Furlanetto, and Nicole Heaston. This is part 2 of the Mozart/Da Ponte trilogy production by director Michael Cavanagh. I saw part 1 in 2019 here. It seemed to work well.
June 4, 10, 12, 15, 18, 21, 26; July 2, 2022 Mozart's Don Giovanni conducted by Bertrand de Billy and starring Étienne Dupuis, Luca Pisaroni, Adela Zaharia, and Carmen Giannattasio. This is part 3 of the Mozart/Da Ponte trilogy production by director Michael Cavanagh.
June 14, 17, 19, 23, 25; July 1, 3, 2022 Sheng's Dream of the Red Chamber. I saw this opera in 2016 at the world premier. They have not provided much additional information.
