Wilmington Concert Opera grew organically out of a friendship between two singers and a gap in their performance schedules. When Co-Founders, Dr. Kirsten C. Kunkle and Dr. Marisa Robinson organized what was initially intended to be a single performance of Puccini’s Suor Angelica in November 2016, their goal as a new musical organization became clear. Wilmington Concert Opera strives to serve the greater Wilmington, Delaware community by prioritizing the hiring of local musicians to provide high-level performance opportunities.  The free performances in West Center City, adjacent to the economically-disadvantaged Arts District, provide opportunities for the community to experience a family-friendly version of a traditionally expensive art form. Wilmington Concert Opera, being an exclusively woman and minority run company, was founded on principles of diversity, inclusivity, and accessibility as core parts of the mission. 

Behind the scenes, WCO became a 501(c)3 in April 2018, assembled their Board of Directors and continuously expanded their network of singers. Their active roster currently comprises roughly fifty singers and five pianists, with many more expressing an interest in working with them. Through thriving social media pages on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, WCO’s glowing reputation continues to spread. Audiences are growing organically, and the organization continues be open to new and exciting partnerships and development in the community.

We are delighted to welcome back Co-founder and Artistic Director, soprano Kirsten C. Kunkle, along with the Mainstage Wilmington Concert Opera debut of pianist Kassandra Weleck, for our next virtual recital!
This recital is titled "Songs My Mother Taught Me...and Songs I Will Teach My Daughter." Both artists have daughters, and together they chose repertoire that was important to them, especially for their children.
This concert is part of the Dr. William L. and Mrs. Dawn Schlotterer Virtual Recital Series. It is a continuation of the Virtual Recital Series that was created in 2020 to safely feature performers online. This recital was recorded live at Pima Community College in Tucson, Arizona in September 2021. It has been edited for Wilmington Concert Opera audiences and will be available on July 9th at 2pm EDT, both on our main Facebook page and on YouTube. Video editing is by Joshua L. Mazur.
