Massopera Announces Its First Live Stream Fundraising Event

MassOpera is presenting a virtual fundraising event Mother's Day Songs and Shout-outs. As many of us cannot presently be with loved ones for special events, MassOpera is presenting an opportunity to connect our audience and their loved ones through song and messages of love.

The show will feature Soprano Rachele Schmiege (full time Chorister with the Metropolitan Opera) Tenor Stefan Barner (Eisenstein in Die Fledermaus with MassOpera and Raylynmor Opera) Mezzo-Soprano Vera Savage (Soloist with Boston Cecilia's Durufle Requiem and The Handmaid's Tale with Boston Lyric Opera), Tenor Giovanni Formisano (performer in local concerts through-out Boston) and Soprano Dana Lynne Varga (MassOpera's Founder and Co-Artistic Director) in a free live streamed virtual fundraiser. "Donate-what-you-can" and one of these 5 singers will read your shout-out or sponsor an aria for $250 and our singers will dedicate a song of-your-choice to your loved one!

Donate $5 and MassOpera will receive $15

How You Can Participate and Donate!

1 Sponsor a song and singer, for $250, with the benefits of:
