Puccini's "Suor Angelica" and "Gianni Schicchi"
When: Feb. 27 and March 1
What: These two one-act operas from Puccini's "Il trittico" cover nuns (one with something to hide) and ne'er-do-wells (Schicchi holds the destiny of a family in his hands, not entirely a good thing for everybody).
Federica von Strade and Samuel Ramey
When: March 22
What: The two famous opera singers hit town for one night, performing popular American music.
Gounod's "Faust"
When: April 17 and 19
