The autumn’s ten concerts will be held on the University of Chicago campus in the South Side’s Hyde Park neighborhood.

Lyric’s 2019-2020 season will include seven mainstage operas (three of which are company premieres), three full performances of Lyric’s new Ring cycle, and the Broadway at Lyric premiere of 42nd Street.

Looking back on his many years experiencing great music in Chicago, Carl shares some of his very favorite performances.

This summer’s festival is anchored by the eighty-second annual residency of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
