Poulenc's "Dialogues des Carmelites" Preview Breakfast and Talk

Prior to the MET Live in HD broadcast of Dialogues des Carmelites, the Taos Opera Guild will host a Preview Breakfast in the Encore Gallery at the Taos Center for the Arts.   After enjoying a KoKo's breakfast at your own expense, there will be a preview talk.  The preview, delivered by Carolyn Haddock, is an ideal introduction to the history of the opera, the current production and provides an opportunity to ask questions.  This would be the perfect primer for an opera novice, so all who are interested are encouraged to come for breakfast, the preview or both!

PLEASE NOTE THE BREAKFAST START TIME AT 8:15 am

You must make a reservation for the Preview Breakfast!  If you register/RSVP on the Taos Opera Guild website for the breakfast, a reservation will be made for you.  If you don't register, please call us at (575) 770-0243 by Friday, May 10th to make a reservation for the Preview Breakfast.

Breakfast choices will include breakfast burritos, fruit, pastries, juice and coffee.

Yannick Nézet-Séguin leads the classic John Dexter production of Poulenc’s devastating story of faith and martyrdom. Mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard sings the touching role of Blanche and soprano Karita Mattila, a legend in her own time, returns to the Met as the Prioress.

Runtime is 3 hours 9 minutes including 1 intermission.
