Classical Post Awards 2019: Santa Fe Opera, Most Innovative Presenter: Opera
Under the direction of its general director Robert K. Meya and its artistic director Alexander Neef, the Santa Fe Opera’s mission is to advance the operatic art form by, essentially, providing the highest quality performances in the most unique setting, bringing about a varied repertoire of new, rarely performed, and standard works.
Operating in a location that’s been called a visual and architectural wonder, the Santa Fe Opera functions to perform excellence in hopes of ensuring opera’s future through unique avenues—apprenticeships for singers, technicians, art administrators, and more. Further, they exist to not only foster understand, but help appreciation of opera thrive among a diverse, but curious public.

📣 Free Masterclass for Artists
If you’ve enjoyed this conversation, I’d love to share something I created that expands on many of the ideas we explore here on Classical Post.
I recorded a free Masterclass designed specifically for classical musicians who want to:
✅ Book more concerts
✅ Increase their performance fees
✅ Build visibility with presenters, agents, and collaborators
This is the same visibility strategy I’ve used in my work with artists at Gold Sound Media—approaches that have helped them land major engagements and grow their careers in meaningful, measurable ways.
📩 Enter your email below and I’ll send you the link to watch the Masterclass on YouTube.
It’s practical, actionable, and designed for artists who are ready to stop waiting and start being seen.
