BOSTON, MA – January 29, 2024 – Boston Lyric Opera (BLO) General Director & CEO Bradley Vernatter announces today the appointment of Nina Yoshida Nelsen (left) as the company’s new Artistic Director after an extensive, industry-wide search process.
"Active, performing singers rarely have the opportunity to translate their expertise into positions of leadership at opera companies,” Nelsen says. “The future of our art form depends on integrating diverse perspectives into decision-making. It’s exciting to create a new way forward for our industry. And the opportunity to do this at BLO brings me great joy."
