About The Marcella Sembrich Opera Museum
 
i
 

Experience a bit of Lake George's Golden Age, at the former teaching studio of the Metropolitan Opera Diva Marcella Sembrich; pianist, violinist, teacher, Polish patriot and benefactor. This quaint building is one of the few open to the public from the "Great and Gracious" period of northern New York State's history of the early 20th century.

Here her teaching studio was the focal point of Mme. Sembrich's summers at her lakeside mansion, named Bay View. Juilliard and Curtis Institute vocal students sought instruction by the acclaimed Marcella Sembrich, in what is now a Memorial Museum.

The Museum is filled with memorabilia of an international operatic career spanning over 50 years, including paintings, sculptures, accolades, personal effects, music, and autographed photographs of Sembrich contemporaries such as Mahler, Rachmaninoff, Caruso, Liszt, Brahms and Puccini.

On a wooded peninsula, today this is a unique "time capsule oasis" situated among commercial resort properties. Visitors can walk along 1,000 feet of Lake George shoreline paths, experiencing the pristine, natural beauty of this Queen of American Lakes among towering 200 year old white pines. The Sembrich Museum property is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
