Houston Grand Opera presents Romeo and Juliet. Featuring an opulent score, this is French opera at its finest, with soaring duets for the star-crossed lovers, beautiful choral harmonies, and sumptuous new sets and costumes. Radiant soprano Elena Villalón and outstanding tenor Ricardo Garcia, both current members of the prestigious HGO Studio, sing the titular lovers, with Grammy Award-winning baritone Donnie Ray Albert, and HGO favorite, as Lord Capulet. HGO Resident Conductor Benjamin Manis takes the podium, and HGO Chorus Master Richard Bado leads the chorus.
The May 21 performance will be livestreamed.
