“Opera at Florham (OaF),” founded in 1982 at the College of Florham, Fairleigh Dickinson University, Madison, NJ, Campus, was initially an extension of its Music Department under the guidance of its Chair, Charles Del Rosso. In addition to providing Musicales in the lovely drawing room, Lenfell Hall, in The Mansion, OAF also performed two Operas annually during those early years at the Campus Theater, Dreyfuss. These Operas involved FDU students in singing roles and as members of the orchestra performing alongside professional artists, locally and from NYC opera houses. Later, OAF became a separate, incorporated, non-profit, 501 c 3 organization in residence at the University. Over the years, OAF has garnered a reputation of providing stellar operatic and other musical performances. Currently, OAF presents four Musicales annually, concerts, the annual Violetta DuPont Vocal competition and an Opera.

Since the OAF’s Company’s inception in 1982, Fairleigh Dickinson University, Madison, NJ, has provided office, meeting and performance space in Lenfell Hall in the Mansion, and Opera performances in Dreyfuss Theater, in addition to numerous other support services.
