Houston Grand Opera

The mission of HGO is to enrich our diverse community through the art of opera. We will do so by creating, curating, exploring, and producing outstanding experiences centered around the human voice.

HGO is committed to the future of opera through initiatives that engage new audiences and give new artists a stage for their voices to be heard. Through this commitment we have had the honor of commissioning a plethora of world premieres—both mainstage grand operas and smaller-scale works—as well as hosting the American premieres of several major operas, paving the way for new eras of the art form in all genres, time periods, and languages. Join us as we continue to raise the curtain on the future of opera, showcasing where the arts can take us when we commit ourselves to new experiences.
