Before the curtain rises on the 2026-27 season, Opera Orlando brings the artists to you.
Three Sunday afternoons this August. One perfect way to spend them.
The Summer Concert Series moves to one of Orlando's celebrated venues, the Orlando Museum of Art. These 2 p.m. concerts turn a regular summer Sunday into something truly special. Arrive early, settle in with a glass of wine, and let the afternoon unfold the way Sundays should: slowly, beautifully, and with voices that make the afternoon stand still. Robin Andrew Stamper will accompany all three concerts this August.
...ooooh, OPERA!
Each concert features artists from Opera Orlando's 2026-27 season performing arias, songs, and duets — intimate and up close. No pit, no proscenium. Just extraordinary voices and the chance to meet the people who will take the stage in Steinmetz Hall this fall.
A pre-show beverage service and post-show reception with appetizers and desserts are included with every ticket. VIP tickets include valet parking and preferred seating. Individual tickets for each concert cost $59 for general seating and $79 for VIP. Subscribe to the entire series and save up to $88!

NOLA RICHARDSON, soprano
Australian-American soprano Nola Richardson is a rapidly rising star, increasingly recognized for her “riveting” stage presence and a voice of “astonishing balance and accuracy.” Equally at home in baroque repertoire and contemporary opera, she created the title role in Sarah Kirkland Snider’s Hildegard with Los Angeles Opera and Beth Morrison Projects, and made her Kennedy Center debut as Fraarte in Handel's Radamisto with Opera Lafayette. Other highlights include Gretel in Hansel and Gretel with the Helena Symphony and Oriana in Amadigi di Gaula with Ars Lyrica Houston. This August she brings all of it to the Truist Auditorium before making her Company debut as Adina in Elixir of Love on the MainStage.

YEAWON JUN, soprano
Korean soprano Yeawon Jun commands an extraordinary range of the operatic repertoire — Donna Anna, Mimì, Musetta, Cunegonde, Micaëla, Cio-Cio San. In the 2025 season alone she performed Nedda in Pagliacci, Leïla in Les Pêcheurs de Perles, Amelia in Un Ballo in Maschera, and Liù in Turandot. A artist of both breadth and depth, she arrives in Orlando this August ahead of one of the season's most anticipated Company debuts — Cio-Cio San in Puccini's Madame Butterfly this October.

JOHANNA WILL, soprano
German soprano Johanna Will possesses what critics have called "a powerhouse of intellectual intention and nuanced color" — a voice that thinks as it sings. Her repertoire spans Tatyana in Eugene Onegin, Contessa in The Marriage of Figaro, Mimì in La Bohème, and Senta in Flying Dutchman, a role she has performed with Oper im Steinbruch and brings to Steinmetz Hall this January in her Opera Orlando debut. Her August concert is your first chance to hear what Wagner sounds like when it's this close.
