Repertory & Archives
Our Archives are under construction. Currently, you may use the toggles below to search our Repertory by YEAR, OPERA TITLE, or COMPOSER.
You can also view our list of NEW WORKS which includes our World and American premieres.
Additionally, we have recently digitized VHS recordings of productions from 1979 - 2001. These digitized recordings are available on the Opera's campus by appointment only, and supervised by our Communications department. To access a full list the material available, or to make an appointment, please contact media@santafeopera.org. Priority is reserved for those with academic pursuits.
