While LA Opera awaits its cue to return to live performances onstage, the company has turned to creating an array of online content through the LA Opera On Now initiative. Coming soon is the first in a series of newly commissioned Digital Shorts videos, pairing gifted composers with visual artists, which have recently been expanded to include composer Anna Clyne’s forthcoming The Gorgeous Nothings, a setting of Emily Dickinson texts for soprano and string quintet. A major highlight of the coming month is a November 14 stream of The Anonymous Lover by Joseph Bologne, the first known Black classical composer. Since the launch of the initiative in March, these popular online offerings have accumulated more than 770,000 views to date.

On tap for the week to come is a performance from Craig Colclough on Thursday, November 5, at 4pm PT.

In this recital, he’ll partner with pianist Jeremy Frank for a program of arias by Verdi, Beethoven and Wagner, along with songs by Cole Porter, Ralph Vaughan Williams and more.
