Boston Summer Opera is coming to town early this year!

Join us for A Bel Canto Evening, a special concert fundraising for our upcoming 2026 season, A Bel Canto Summer!

This program features arias by bel canto composers Donizetti and Rossini, as well as other works, all performed by Boston Summer Opera artists.

Bel canto, which translates to “beautiful singing,” is all about the voice. This music highlights the power of the human voice and is an accessible introduction to opera for both first-time audience members and longtime opera lovers.

All performers in this concert are professional Boston-based musicians graciously donating their talent in an effort to help us fundraise for A Bel Canto Summer. All proceeds will go towards artist pay, venue costs, and our mission to keep opera affordable and welcoming for our community. Tickets are intentionally low-cost, and additional donations during the event are greatly appreciated.
