About Opera Huntsville:
Opera Huntsville (formerly Encore Opera Huntsville) was founded in 2018 purely for the love of singing and opera. From that point, Opera Huntsville continued to grow. It is now an official 501(c)(3) organization and it serves as the preeminent opera organization in the Greater Huntsville area. Opera Huntsville’s mission is to produce high-quality productions, to promote curiosity and love for the operatic art form, and to educate the Northern Alabama community on the nature of opera. Their vision is to grow into a full, professional opera company, and to continue to share their love of music with other musicians and the community.
