Mozart’s La clemenza di Tito—a story of betrayal, political upheaval, and the radical choice of mercy. In an era marked by deep polarization and the global demand for accountable leadership, this late Mozart masterpiece offers a striking portrait of a ruler who chooses forgiveness over vengeance. Set against the backdrop of a crumbling republic, the opera explores what it truly means to lead with integrity, compassion, and resilience. With a libretto by Metastasio and Mazzolà, Tito challenges us to imagine a different kind of power—one rooted not in domination, but in grace.

25th Anniversary Festival Description:

dell’Arte Opera Ensemble launches its 25th Anniversary Festival with Voice of Her Heart — a powerful opening concert featuring settings of Frauenliebe und -leben by Robert Schumann and Carl Loewe. Featuring distinguished alumni and composers, the program also shines a spotlight on works by Clara Schumann, Fanny Hensel, Alma Mahler, Martha Sullivan, Valerie Saalbach, and Ellen Mandel.

The celebration continues with a timely and resonant production of Mozart’s La clemenza di Tito, libretto by Pietro Metastasio and Caterino Mazzolà.

The festival also presents a captivating program drawn from Italienisches Liederbuch—Italian folk poetry translated into German by Paul Heyse and set to music by Hugo Wolf, Joseph Marx, Hermann Goetz, Arnold Mendelssohn, and Johannes Brahms.

Programming curated and prepared by Artistic Director Chris Fecteau.

DELL’ARTE OPERA ENSEMBLE was created to provide emerging opera artists with training and performance opportunities necessary to bridge the gap between the conservatory and a flourishing career. The emphasis is on “learning by doing”, backed by the philosophy that superior craft creates great art. DELL’ARTE’S annual summer repertory season also attracts new audiences by offering high-quality, meticulously crafted opera presentations featuring rising young artists in intimate venues. The company’s programming includes a wide range of operas, ranging from standard repertoire like Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro and Bizet’s Carmen to seldom heard works like Salieri’s Falstaff and Hiram Titus’ Rosina, to new works including Carla Lucero and Alicia Gaspar de Alba’s Juana, and in 2019, our first commission, Princess Maleine by Whitney George and Bea Goodwin.

Since its founding in 2000 DELL’ARTE has focused on helping singers integrate the skills that comprise a comprehensive role preparation process. Our goals are to:

Provide role preparation guidance, from audition and casting, through coaching and rehearsals, to debut performances;

Provide singers with a comprehensive professional rehearsal and performance context with the highest expectations and standards for effective collaboration .

Participants in the program receive a unique and carefully structured curriculum of private coaching, seminars, and masterclasses with industry professionals designed to address practice methods, diction, musical style, movement and character development, preparing them for a career in an increasingly competitive opera world. Unlike many other programs, ours charges no fees and does not require singers to leave New York City.

Since its inception in 2000, nearly 600 singers have benefited from DELL’ARTE’s programs. Of these, more than 30% perform regularly in opera houses and concert halls throughout the US and internationally, including LA Opera, Sarasota Opera, Deutsche Oper Berlin, the Royal Opera House (London) and Bel Canto at Caramoor. At least 10 have had Metropolitan Opera debuts and many are now on faculty at universities around the country.
