December 12, 2020

The Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra will welcome the new year with a festive program featuring acclaimed mezzo-soprano Lisa Chavez and discounted livestream gift tickets to allow patrons to share the concert with family members and friends.

The concert begins at 7 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 31, at the Church of God in Easton, Md., for both virtual and live, socially distanced audiences.

“It will be very exciting for our audience to hear Lisa Chavez, one of the great American mezzos of today,” said Maestro Julien Benichou, Mid-Atlantic Symphony music director. “Everyone who hears her sing agrees that there is no one else like her.”

Chavez is widely known for the role of Carmen, which she has performed with companies including the New York City Opera.

Chavez earned her master’s degree from the Manhattan School of Music after studying at California State University-Hayward. She has been a member of opera companies in San Jose, Calif., and Sarasota, Fla., and made her Carnegie Hall debut in Dan Forrest’s “Jubilate Deo.” Chavez is a founding member of Opera Collective, an independent opera company making operatic repertoire accessible throughout New York City.

Tickets to attend the New Year’s Eve performance as a member of the live, socially distanced audience of up to 150 individuals are $85, while supplies last. Individual tickets to view the concert livestream are $25. Gift tickets for the livestream are available at five for $100, a $25 savings from the individual ticket price.

All tickets include access to pre- and post-concert discussions led by Benichou.
