“Give me some music!” quoth Shakespeare—and who are we to deny the man his melodies? In this lush evening of song, the Portland Opera Resident Artists present a variety of selections sure to satisfy every Shakespeare loving musicophile. 

From art song to aria, Shakespeare has inspired a plethora of tunes as unforgettable as the words that inspired them. This production is curated in partnership with “Shakespeare's First Folio: 1623–2023,” a public humanities project at Portland State University in collaboration with other regional arts organizations recognizing and celebrating Shakespeare’s legacy.
