DESCRIPTION:Jul 25 - Aug 21\, 2026\nIn 2023\, Handelians from the Big Apple
  were flocking to the Our Town setting of Hudson\, New York\, for R. B. Sc
 hlather’s streamlined take on the twisted political soap Rodelinda. (Can
  you flock to a house seating of 271? Maybe not.) Keely Futterer took the 
 title role of a widowed queen in great duress\, memorably accompanied by t
 he frisky original-instruments band Ruckus. Last spring\, Schlather welcom
 ed day trippers back to Hudson for Giulio Cesare in Egitto\, starring Rand
 all Scotting as the Roman conqueror and Song Hee Lee as his serpent of old
  Nile. To catch Schlather’s perhaps somewhat more mainstream reprise of 
 Rodelinda this summer\, his burgeoning fan base will have to hop a plane t
 o New Mexico. This time\, Lucy Crowe occupies the heroine’s shaky throne
 \, supported by the Baroque specialist Henry Bicket in charge of an actual
  orchestra. Much as Schlather flourishes in the let’s-make-a-show ambien
 ce of Hudson\, where he lives\, he’s no stranger to Santa Fe and to big-
 time opera houses more generally. But those who favor the Columbia County 
 vibe (and Ruckus!) will want to mark their calendars now for the rarity De
 idamia in 2027. All Handel operas were rarities a half century ago\, of co
 urse\, but for a handful\, that’s no longer the case. Deidamia isn’t o
 ne of them.
