She will also perform at the company's 60th Anniversary Gala on Saturday, November 1 with jazz legend RamseyLewis. Fleming last appeared at Lyric as Blanche DuBois in the 2012-13 production of André Previn's A Streetcar Named Desire.

Kaufmann, who The New York Times describes as "the hottest tenor in opera," last appeared at Lyric as Chevalier des Grieux in the David McVicar-directed production of Massenet's Manon in the 2008-09 season.

Capriccio with Renée Fleming, Anne Sofie von Otter, Bo Skovhus, and conducted by Sir Andrew Davis opens October 6 with seven performances through October 28.
