Series I: Productions, circa 1944-2013

Series contains records of the company's repertoire, as well as the administrative operations behind the productions, dating from circa 1944 to 2013. The series is divided into 4 subseries: production files arranged by title, tours, production planning and reports, and recording projects and broadcasts. While this series focuses more on the artistic and creative aspects of the production produced by the company, materials related to the company's productions may also overlap with files in other series.

Subseries I.1: Production Files by Title consists of stage guides, production files, scores, photographs, and scenery plans, dating from circa 1944 to 2013. The production files consist of files such as technical files, set and costumes files, accounts and expenses, licenses, contracts, correspondence. Stage guides and production files from later years may also include materials from earlier years, with inscriptions by the stage managers. The photographs consist of mostly black and white positive and negative prints as well as color slides and reproductions depicting costumes, set designs, casts, photo call, and the stage of the production. Early photographs from the pre-1990s period were mostly taken by Fred Fehl and Beth Bergman. The scenery plans include stage and ground plans, props drawings, lighting, costume, and set designs. The records in this subseries demonstrate the artistic and creative productions in the vast repertoire of the company.

Subseries I.2: Tours consists of tour files, dating from 1946 to 1999, mainly in the U.S. but also internationally such as countries in Europe, Taiwan, and Japan. Materials include correspondence, contracts, clippings, box office, receipts, accounts and expenses, schedules, programs, photographs, etc. Early tour files are on acidic paper and could be fragile. Additional artist contracts for Los Angeles Tour, 1974-1979 can be found in Subseries II.2: Contracts. Additional box office files can also be found in Subseries III.3: Box Office, especially related to the LA Tours and John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts dating from 1972 to 1982.

Subseries I.3: Production Planning and Reports contains records that document behind the scenes for the productions. Materials include budgeting, casting, scripts, schedules, original casts and changes, music sign out books, cast books, coaching register, assignments, performance reports, production planning and research, and set rental info. The earlier files overlapped with materials such as Casting and Budget Files from 1940s-1970s in Series III: Financial, Subseries III.1: General. Earlier rehearsal schedule and orchestration files may be found in Subseries V.2: Julius Rudel.

Subseries I.4: Recording Projects and Broadcasts comprises files related to radio, film, television, and other recording projects contracted with the company, dating from 1981 to 1986. Additional files can be found in Subseries I.1: Production Files by Title.

Series VI: Education, 1970-2010

New York City Opera's first in-school performance in 1966 led to the creation of the Education Department, whose main purpose is to open up the world of opera to young people and other special audiences. The Education Department offers a number of specially designed presentations and fully staged children's operas which tour to regional schools. In collaboration with the NYCO Guild, the Education Department coordinates open dress rehearsals for students at the New York State Theater. For both this event and for the in-school programs, the department prepares background materials and teaching aids. One of the most popular services offered by the Education Department is OPERAPAK, which contains a plot summary, composer biography, historical notes, and other valuable materials relating specifically to the productions in the City Opera repertory. The Education Department also later expanded its in-school offerings to include preparation and follow-up workshops in conjunction with its performances. Another program that continues to thrive and expand is the New York City Opera-In-The-Community program, which provides performances for adult community groups in the metropolitan area.

This series contains files from the Education Department, dating from 1970 to 2010, with the bulk dating from 1980-1991. Materials in this series include administrative records such as budgets, contracts, correspondence, payroll, schedules, reports, vouchers, community outreach programs, teaching materials, and study and activity guides. The materials in this series served as teaching materials to support the Education Department's mission in educating and introducing students in the metropolitan area to operas and performing arts.

Box 227 Folder 1 James North Correspondence, 1990, 2013

A letter from Christopher Keene, outlining his philosophy as New York City Opera Director. A few miscellaneous promos and announcements from the final seasons.


VOX Showcasing American Composers

In 1999, the New York City Opera Company began a series of opera readings called "Showcasing American Composers" ("VOX" was added to the title in 2002, "Contemporary American Opera Lab" added in 20 I 0). Such workshop productions had been common in the opera world, but this was the first to first to use a full opera orchestra, allowing composers and listeners to hear bow the music really sounded. The public was invited, at no cost, but audiences were small in the early year. In 2006, VOX moved to NYU's Skirball Center for the Performing Arts. By this time, VOX had attained a considerable reputation in the opera world, and representatives from many companies swelled the audience. Skirball Center was an ideal site: a modem theater with excellent facilities and 950 seats, now well filled. In later years, a $25 "consignment" for tickets was instituted to contain audience size. Six operas were presented on each of two days (Saturday and Sunday) rehearsals were no longer open to the public, and each opera received 30 minutes rather than 45. Those changes made it more difficult to appreciate an unknown work. To counter that, videos of composers and librettists helped prepare the audience for what it was about to experience.

In its thirteen-year run, VOX presented 129 performances of 125 operas by 115 composer. This collection includes several single-sheet programs for operas in 1999, 2000, and 2001 some of them with libretti. Beginning in 2002, large, multipage booklets were offered for each season, covering all the operas given; a libretto for each was handed out just before its performance; I believe this collection is complete for the years 2002-2012. A plain envelope contains miscellaneous correspondence and papers for 1999-2001, including a letter from Maestro Anton Coppola, hand-written two weeks before his 102nd birthday.

For amatuer recording of the VOX performance, see Audio-Visual Series.
