For the first time, we are stretching our season into the summer with the Pittsburgh premiere of one of opera’s rarest sparkling jewels, Rossini’s La donna del lago. The first of the many Italian operas based on the works of Sir Walter Scott, La donna del lago (The Lady of the Lake), features another operatic rarity: a heroine with agency, who - spoiler alert! - does not die!  Filled with dueling high notes and coloratura fireworks, this story of love, loyalty, (and lochs!) in the Scottish highlands is a unique bel canto experience not to be missed!



La donna del lago spotlights two returning members of our artistic family. Timothi Williams (Rigoletto, To Breathe Free, B Minor Mass) brings her lush mezzo-soprano to the virtuosic title role of Elena alongside internationally-lauded tenor and Pittsburgh Opera Center alum Javier Abreu (B Minor Mass) as Uberto (King James V in disguise!)  Our production team will be led by first-time Resonance Works collaborator Marni Raab as stage director, with Artistic Director Maria Sensi Sellner on the podium. Raab draws from a wealth of experience on Broadway and international stages, as well as a background in dramaturgy.  Damian Dominguez returns as costume designer, following a celebrated design in the “Flowers Meet Fashion: Inspired by Billy Porter” installation at Phipps Conservatory this past summer. 

La donna del lago will leave you with a smile on your face and a song in your heart. Don’t miss this exhilarating romantic bel canto opera - in kilts!
