Pacific Opera Project to Stream One Opera Per Day

By David Salazar

Pacific Opera Project is joining a number of other opera companies in bringing opera to the public online.

On March 19, 2020, the company loaded up its production of “La Traviata” on its official YouTube channel. Afterward, it put up its production of “The Barber of Seville” before loading up “Le Nozze di Figaro” on March 20.

The aim is to load up one opera a day until it has showcased all 35 of its works online.
