Opera Appreciation classes with Conservatory Instructor, Maestro
Hugo Rinaldi. In 1999 the Conservatory began it's annual Holiday
Choral Ensemble featuring Bay Area High School Choirs.
 Napa
Valley Opera House - The
Napa Valley Opera House was built in 1879 as one of the first "respectable"
venues west of the Mississippi River. For the latter half of the
19th century, the Napa Valley Opera House was the cultural center
for the region, until the decline of vaudeville and other pressures
forced it to go dark in 1914.The house was nearly destroyed until
a few Napa Valley Opera House devotees spared it from the wrecking
ball in the early 1970s.For the last 15 years, the NVOH has been
slowly restoring itself for a new future through a series of fundraising
challenges, construction activities and visionary plans. The house
came back to life in June 2002 with the opening of the Cafe Theatre;
its historic main hall is expected to reopen in late summer, 2003,
in all of its original splendor.
