In addition to Constantine’s engagements as guest conductor, he is music director of the Festival of the Arts Boca and general director of Chatham Opera. He was recently appointed general director of the New York Grand Opera charged with bringing free opera back to New York’s Central Park. Highlights of the 2018-19 season include his debut with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and return engagements here and with orchestras in Dallas, Detroit, New Jersey, San Francisco, Toronto, New York, Louisiana and San Antonio. He will conduct Leonard Bernstein’s Mass at Indiana University Opera Theatre. His commitment to opera has led him to develop semi-staged productions of Mozart’s The Magic Flute, for which he has written a new translation, Don Giovanni and La bohème. With Indiana University Opera Theatre, he has conducted productions of Falstaff, Die Fledermaus, A View from the Bridge, H.M.S. Pinafore, The Most Happy Fella, South Pacific, Oklahoma!, The Music Man and The Last Savage. He was assistant chorus master at New York City Opera, 1984-1989. On Broadway, Constantine served as music director of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella, the Gershwins’ Porgy and Bess (cast album, PS Classics), A Catered Affair (cast album, PS Classics), Coram Boy, La bohème (cast album, DreamWorks Records), Swan Lake and Les Misérables. He was music director of American Conservatory Theater’s acclaimed production of Weill/Brecht’s Happy End and made the only English language recording of the piece for Sh-K-Boom Records. A Broadway highlight was serving as music director and principal conductor of Baz Luhrmann’s production of Puccini’s La bohème. As composer, he is music director/supervisor of Temple, with book and lyrics by Silvia Peto, music by Norman Durkee; Constantine provided additional music, arrangements and orchestrations. Other works in development are Alamo, with music and lyrics by Timothy Noble and Constantine as music director/supervisor, arranger and orchestrator; and a chamber opera about three generations of Greek women, Holy Week, with librettist Evangelia Kingsley. Constantine Kitsopoulos studied piano with Marienka Michna, Chandler Gregg, Edward Edson and Sophia Rosoff. He studied conducting with Semyon Bychkov, Sergiu Commissiona, Gustav Meier and his principal teacher, Vincent La Selva.

Patrick Doyle | composer Patrick Doyle, a classically trained composer, graduated from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music in 1975 and was made a Fellow of the RSAM in 2001. In 1989, director Sir Kenneth Branagh commissioned Patrick to compose the score for the feature film Henry V, conducted by Sir Simon Rattle, and they have subsequently collaborated on numerous pictures, including Much Ado About Nothing, Hamlet, As You Like It and Cinderella. Patrick and Branagh’s collaboration within film and theatre continues, with performances worldwide that include Branagh’s 2015 production of The Winter’s Tale, which ran at the Garrick Theatre in London’s West End. Patrick has been commissioned to score more than 50 international feature films, including Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Gosford Park, Sense and Sensibility, Indochine, Carlito’s Way and A Little Princess. His work has led to collaborations with some of the most acclaimed directors in the world, including Régis Wargnier, Brian De Palma, Alfonso Cuaròn, Ang Lee, Chen Kaige, Mike Newell and Robert Altman. He has received two Oscar, two Golden Globe, one BAFTA and two César nominations, as well as winning the 1989 Ivor Novello Award for Best Film Theme for Henry V. He has also been honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award from The World Soundtrack Awards and Scottish BAFTA, the Henry Mancini Award from ASCAP and the PRS Award for extraordinary achievement in music. In 2015, he completed work on the music for Walt Disney’s live action version of Cinderella, directed by Branagh; it marked their 11th film collaboration. Patrick also recorded a solo piano album, made up of a collection of his film scores (released by Varese Sarabande, 2015). Recent films include the remake of Scottish classic Whisky Galore and Amma Asante’s A United Kingdom.
