With a prologue (
last summer in Montpellier), 2011 marks the rediscovery of Bernard Herrmann's
Wuthering Heights with the
performances given at the Minnesota Opera. Regrettably the 2012 coda that was announced in the American Symphony Orchestra 2011/2012 season with a Carnegie Hall (NY) concert performance of the opera has been cancelled and replaced by Franz Schmid's
The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
But 2012 can still be a Brontë operatic year. The
Mittelsächsisches Theater (Freiburg, Germany) new season includes a production of Carlisle Floyd's 1958
Wuthering Heights opera. At this point nothing is known about cast or director, but the premiere is scheduled for February 11.
