Yes, La Cieca realizes it was all hashed out a week ago here in the blogosphere, but Daniel J. Wakin of the New York Times has finally got around to transcribing the New York City Opera’s press release about its new season. As you all know, the season opener will be Esther, starring Lauren Flanigan. This work runs November 7 through 19, followed by Don Giovanni a la Christopher Alden on November 8 through 22.

With the spring emerge L’etoile (March 18 through April 1), 10 (!) performances of Madama Butterfly, and the season closer, Partenope (April 3 through 17).  A few minutes of delving reveals a complete press release at the NYCO’s website.

In other more current news, Our Own JJ reviews the Met’s revival of L’elisir d’amore in The New York Post.
