Tulsa talent is on full display when the dedicated artists of the acclaimed Tulsa Opera Chorus and Orchestra return to the stage for the first time since 2023 to deliver a musical experience of unforgettable power and passion that only a dynamic blend of voices and instruments can bring.

At Grand Voices, you'll enjoy 90 minutes of the most thrilling and gorgeous choruses from operatic and Broadway blockbusters, including works like Carmen, Roméo et Juliette, Cavalleria rusticana, Les Misérables, Sunday in the Park with George, and Candide. This grand season opener is accompanied by the Tulsa Opera Orchestra under the baton of Lyndon Meyer, Director of the Tulsa Opera Chorus.

A wildfire of passion ignites the moment disgraced nobleman-turned-soldier Don José meets the beautiful, free-spirited Roma woman, Carmen. But like a wildfire, that passion soon burns out of control, consuming José's life, honor, and relationships. Like a wildfire, Carmen's love for freedom and independence cannot easily be contained or controlled.

Adapted from the original Prosper Mérimée novella and Georges Bizet's blockbuster grand opera Carmen, The Tragedy of Carmen is a compact, intimate, and scorching adaption of the popular story featuring the famous score's most beloved musical gems and dramatic moments while more closely following Mérimée's original story. Carolyn Watson helms the orchestra.

Profoundly emotional. Deeply devotional. Sublimely beautiful. Antonín Dvořák's Stabat Mater is a sensitive and humble setting of the Crucifixion story, seen through the eyes of Mother Mary. The text, attributed to the medieval Italian Franciscan monk Jacopone da Todi, explores themes of grief, love, faith, compassion, and ultimately, hope. Despite the solemn subject matter, the overall tone of the work is positive and life-affirming.

The Tulsa Opera Signature Chorale, the Tulsa Opera Orchestra, and four talented soloists, under the baton of Artistic Director Aaron Beck, join forces to offer an evening of transcendence from despair to hope, anguish to ecstasy, darkness to radiant light.

Fleming's acclaimed recital of Romantic and contemporary songs is accompanied by orchestra with a backdrop of a beautiful film from the National Geographic Society. The program explores our evolving relationship with nature and the world we live in via classical song.

Tulsa Youth Opera goes "there and back again" in this delightful adaption of J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy epic. Bilbo Baggins lives a peaceful, comfortable life until the wizard Gandalf and a troupe of rowdy dwarves invade his home and enlist him to join their quest to reclaim their home and treasure.

Dean Burry's tuneful score, composed for child performers and audiences, is a rollicking adventure complete with an epic journey, a magical Ring, and of course, the fire-breathing dragon, Smaug! Artistic Director Aaron Beck leads the orchestra.
