Heartbeat Opera was founded by Ethan Heard (Co-Founder & Artistic Director) and Louisa Proske (Co-Founder & Resident Director) in 2014, after they graduated from Yale School of Drama’s directing program, to create incisive adaptations and revelatory arrangements of classics, reimagining them for the here and now. “One of the most agile and dynamic companies on New York’s indie opera scene” (Opera News), Heartbeat has established itself as a highly respected, innovative force in the opera world. Daniel Schlosberg and Jacob Ashworth joined the team as Co-Music Directors from the first season. In the summer of 2021, Proske relocated to Germany, and Heartbeat welcomed Derrell Acon as Heartbeat’s first Associate Artistic Director. Annie Middleton is the company’s Managing Director, and Lauren Hood is Interim Managing Director.
