Whether you've been a season subscriber for forty years or you're discovering the magic of opera for the first time, your gift is a vote for the continued beauty of the human voice.
Will you help us reach $100,000 and ensure the Florentine Opera Chorus sings for another 93 years?
The Voice of Milwaukee Since 1933
In 1933, a group of passionate Italian immigrants gathered in Milwaukee with a singular vision: to bring the grandeur of the Italian opera tradition to their new home. They didn't just build a company; they built a community.
For 93 years, the Florentine Opera Chorus has been the "heartbeat" of the Florentine. They are the villagers, the soldiers, the revelers, and the tragic witnesses. They are the wall of sound that gives you goosebumps during a Verdi masterpiece and the quiet harmony that breaks your heart in a Puccini aria.
But beyond the stage, our chorus members are your neighbors. They are teachers, doctors, students, and retirees who dedicate hundreds of hours to perfecting a craft that connects us to our past and carries us into our future.
The Goal: $100,000 for the Next Generation
Artist Sustainability: Compensation for local choristers.
Legacy Preservation: Supporting a rich history of Milwaukee singers.
Musical Excellence: Investing in rehearsal and preparation.
