ROH 2009/2010 Season Announced

Although there are several publications online announcing the ROH 2009/2010 Season, I have been unable to find one that simply spells it out. So far all I have seen are articles and the simple list of Opera titles on ROH website. Thus I have created the below list for quick easy access to the basic information. Some of the productions I have been unable to find the director and/or conductor for, but most of the information is here. I hope this is helpful.
