RETURNING TO NOI+F

WOLF TRAP OPERA

Wolf Trap Opera’s UNTRAPPED series, which takes thrilling vocal music to spaces beyond the company’s Northern Virginia home, continues its collaboration with NOI+F! These talented vocal artists, the Philharmonic and conductor John Morris Russell open the 2019 Festival with George Gershwin’s American opera Porgy and Bess. On June 22, UNTRAPPED makes an encore at The Clarice with a semi-staged performance of Maurice Ravel’s comedy L’heure espagnole.

INNOVATION STUDIO AT NOI+F

NOI+F partners with UMD’s Academy for Innovation and Entrepreneurship to host a cohort of students dedicated to re-imagining the symphony orchestra. Musicians join with creative innovators from other fields of study to examine, rethink and renovate the orchestral experience through design thinking.
