My delightful & most interesting guest today is Jane Klaviter and if you’re a fan of music & opera, or even if you’re not, you’re going to love to hear her story! Growing up in Chicago and coming from a very musically inclined family, she was destined to pursue a musical career, but never dreamed of the journey she has navigated!
Jane has been involved in all things opera for a very long time, and has worked in many, if not most, of the most famous opera houses, including Lyric Opera in Chicago, Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Metropolitan Opera in New York, where she worked for over 18 years! She has taught at Juilliard and Manhattan School of Music among a long list of others! The most interesting job that you probably never heard of in the opera, is the prompter, a role in which she loved and excelled! And I believe she speaks at least six languages, and those are just the ones I know of!
You will hear her passion as she tells several intimate stories during her career, working with legends like Luciano Pavarotti, Luigi Ricci and even actors who had speaking roles in productions such as Bea Author, Dom Delouse & Sid Caesar!
And we will hear about her true passion, the Bel Conto Institute in Florence, Italy, a non-profit organization, she founded in 1987, with the purpose of teaching and perpetuating the style and tradition of 19th & 20th Century Italian opera and song through summer programs for students from all over the world.
And of course, we’ll hear her own story of what lured her to the lake! We are so fortunate to have her here and now it’s time for you to meet her.

Lure of the Lake
Lake Oconee, Georgia, located halfway between Augusta and Atlanta, is a man-made paradise with incredible beauty that makes it a great vacation destination for people of all ages. More than that, though, it's a community for those that are looking for a peaceful life filled with nature and beauty.
I, myself, am a member of that community. I moved to Reynolds in 2020 and started to hear the incredible stories of its residents. Join me, now, as we take a plunge into some fascinating stories of the many well-lived lives of our community and learn why they were Lured to the Lake.
