Many of us probably wish we could visit a bustling Parisian café right now, which is why this week we're living vicariously through soprano
Danielle de Niese as Musetta singing "Quando me'n vo'" from our 2018 production of La bohème.
We're also reprising a lighthearted Patter Up interview with mezzo-soprano Susan Graham, a behind-the-scenes Q&A with Wig Master and makeup designer Sarah Hatten, and a little inspiration for the at-home mixologists with new Lyric Libations.
Patter Up: 60 Seconds with Susan Graham
Susan Graham has an incredible three-decade history with Lyric, most recently in Dead Man Walking last November. Learn more about the BBQ-loving mezzo-soprano in this quick-fire interview.
Thank you. Yes, you.
When we had to cancel the Ring cycles, which was a very devastating time for us, seeing how many patrons and donors have stepped up to help has been incredibly motivating.
Meet Lyric’s wig master and makeup designer
Hear why Sarah Hatten believes the best compliment she or her department could get is that no one notices her work onstage.
Ring Libations with the Lyric Opera Orchestra
Toast the Ring cycle gods this week with special librations created by Lyric Opera orchestra members. From "They Might be Giants" featuring gold flakes to symbolize the Rhinemaidens’ gold to the blinged out "Shoulda Put a Ring on It," there’s something for everyone.
