Washington National Opera
Founded in 1965, Washington National Opera is recognized today as one of the leading opera companies in the United States. Under the leadership of General Director Plácido Domingo, the company continues to build on its rich history by offering productions of consistently high artistic standards. Washington National opera creates seasons of excitement by balancing popular grand opera with new or less frequently performed works. Through its extensive opera education outreach program and the Domingo-Cafritz Young Artist Program, the company reaches new audiences and develops the careers of young singers.
