As Houston Grand Opera reimagined its Fall season for a virtual platform, it transformed its Cullen Theater at the Wortham Theater Center into a production studio, recording three opera productions for digital distribution and presenting a recital series. The opera company also invited other arts organizations in the area to use the studio as a possible venue. In addition, HGO is partnering with other opera companies to create a virtual audition process for its Young Artists Program. This Saturday on A Tempo (9/19 at 7 pm), host Rachel Katz speaks with HGO Artistic and Music Director Patrick Summers and HGO Studio Director Brian Speck about these initiatives.
