Opera Under the Stars

On Saturday, November 1, 2025, at 6p.m., the Rancho Mirage Amphitheater will host a truly special evening of music and culture. Opera Under the Stars brought to you by Coachella Valley Symphony featuring the Palm Springs Opera Guild, for a joint performance that marks the official season opener for both organizations.

Under the direction of Music Director and Conductor John Mario, the Symphony will join forces with the Opera Guild to present an inspiring program of opera highlights and symphonic favorites, offering audiences an unforgettable experience under the desert sky. The performance will showcase four distinguished guest artists: mezzo-soprano Tzytle Steinman, soprano Tasha Hokuao Koontz, baritone Hyungjin Son, and tenor Gerardo Gaytan.

For over three decades, the Coachella Valley Symphony has been a cornerstone of the region’s cultural landscape, fostering appreciation for the performing arts and enriching the lives of residents and visitors alike. The partnership with the Palm Springs Opera Guild for this celebratory performance underscores a shared commitment to excellence, accessibility, and community engagement.

As the sun sets over Rancho Mirage and the first notes of the season rise, Opera Under the Stars will stand as both a celebration of tradition and a vision for the future of the arts in the valley.
