UC Davis Symphony Orchestra: “Barbara K. Jackson Rising Stars of Opera”
Christian Baldini, director and
conductor
with the San Francisco Opera Adler Fellows
Since its inception in 2010, Rising Stars of Opera has featured vocal artistry, stirring arias and a glimpse at the opera stars of tomorrow; and every ticket has been free to the public thanks to Barbara K. Jackson. Rekindling an old tradition, we relaunch Rising Stars of Opera with several singers from the acclaimed San Francisco Opera Center performing a wide range of great arias with full orchestral accompaniment from our own UC Davis Symphony Orchestra.
