Rare and Forgotten Operas Restored Artistic Director: Carlo Rizzi Honorary Patron: Renee Fleming Artist Ambassadors: Ermonela Jaho & Michael Spyres Gramophone Label of the Year 2024 ** Opera Raras mission is to restore, record, perform and promote the lost operatic heritage of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Opera Rara is a unique combination of opera charity, recording label and live operatic archaeologist. We search for neglected operatic masterpieces and restore them to life for contemporary audiences to enjoy. Working with the best singers, conductors, orchestras and musicologists, we are at the cutting edge of the opera world, leading the expansion of the repertoire and encouraging other opera companies to explore new and unknown rediscoveries. 2020 marked Opera Raras 50th anniversary: half a century of ground-breaking work. Our artistic success has been recognised through major awards, in the last decade alone at the International Opera Awards (Best Opera Recording)...
