Operetta Foundation, a private research library in the Los Angeles area that houses America’s largest collection of operetta-related material (books, scores, recordings, programs, posters, and other ephemera), is dedicated to the preservation, recognition, and promotion of our national and international operetta heritage.  The foundation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation and all donations are tax-deductible.  Your support in helping us achieve our goals is very much appreciated.

The foundation regularly releases CDs and DVDs – both historical and newly recorded.  Please check our order site Operetta Archives periodically for new issues.

The foundation sponsors an associated group that meets quarterly, the Friends of Operetta.  Its mission is to entertain, educate, and provide opportunities to share and celebrate our common love of operetta and musical theatre.

The foundation has produced six concerts to date, beginning in 2003. The goal of these concerts is to entertain audiences and bring beautiful, yet rarely performed and all-but-forgotten, music back to the stage.  For more information, please click on Concert info.
