Works and Process to Feature Boston Lyric Opera’s ‘The Seasons’

By Francisco Salazar

Works & Process at the Guggenheim is set to present Boston Lyric Opera’s “The Seasons” by Antonio Vivaldi with a libretto by Sarah Ruhl featuring Anthony Roth Costanzo, Sarah Ruhl, Zack Winokur, and Pam Tanowitz.

The Works and Process will be held on Jan. 14, 2024 at the Peter B. Lewis Theater and will showcase the reimagining of Viladi’s pieces. Tony Award-winning playwright Sarah Ruhl wrote the work and co-conceived it with countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo. The piece tells the story of a group of contemporary artists who arrive at an artists’ retreat and encounter extreme weather that impacts them without warning and changes their lives forever.

Featuring excerpts from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons paired with additional arias and ensemble works by the composer, “The Seasons” challenges audiences with the world’s increasingly disordered seasons more clearly and more urgently.

“The Seasons” is set to have its world premiere in March 2025 at Boston Lyric Opera (BLO).
