UMD's first undergraduate-run opera company presents a fully-staged production of Purcell's Dido and Aeneas featuring singers and instrumentalists from the School of Music.

OperaTerps is an student-run organization that gives undergraduate musicians at the University of Maryland the opportunity to participate in a major musical undertaking while enriching cultural life on the university campus and in the College Park community. Those involved will gain valuable experience directing, producing, conducting and performing to apply to their future professional careers while student and local audiences will benefit from the enhanced musical life on campus.
