Harlem Opera Theater

Harlem Opera Theater

Founded in 2001, under the leadership of Artistic Director, Dr. Gregory Hopkins, internationally acclaimed tenor, conductor, organist and pianist. Harlem Opera Theater's performances include all types of musical offerings: opera, oratory concerts, recitals, Negro Spirituals and varied forms of American music, in keeping with our mission “to provide performance opportunities for professional and developing gifted artists within Harlem and communities where opera is seldom performed; and to cultivate and expand audience appreciation for opera and classical music through creative programming. Particular focus, through not exclusive emphasis is given to the works of African-American composers and to projects that link different aspects of the performing arts.
