The Israeli Opera hosts an annual season of operatic performances at the Tel Aviv Performing Arts Center. The season runs from December to July and normally features at least eight productions, from world-renowned operas to avant-garde Israeli productions.



The Israeli Opera was founded in 1985 with a production of Dido and Aeneas, accompanied by the Israel Chamber Orchestra. Its forebears can be traced back to January 1922, when the Hebrew Opera in Eretz performed pieces by Anton Rubinstein and Tchaikovsky, accompanied by piano.

Since its establishment the Israeli Opera has commissioned and performed several operas by Israeli creators. The operas performed at the Opera House include Josef by Josef Tal and Israel Eliraz, Alpha & Omega by Gil Shohat to a libretto by Dori Manor and Ana Herman and A Journey to the End of the Millennium by Joseph Bardanashvili and A. B. Yehoshua, which was commissioned especially for the 20th anniversary of the Israeli Opera. In addition, the opera also produced The Quest to Polyphonia by Richard Farber and Dear Son of Mine by Haim Permont and Talma Alyagon. The Israeli Opera will continue to commission new operas by Israeli composers and to perform them on its main stage and throughout Israel.
