Their intent was to highlight composers whose nontraditional work rarely received commissions.[2]Reception[edit]The festival has a reputation for producing new operas of high quality. While classical music institutions struggled to sell new work to its core audience, classical music critic Anne Midgette cited Prototype as developing an audience for opera outside of these institutions and evolving the form into less of a “bourgeois art form”. Prototype rose to prominence quickly, Midgette wrote, from a confluence of the opera world’s “desperation” to find new, good work and the reduced costs of staging an experimental show outside of major mainstages.[5] Without remaking the genre, she wrote that Prototype provides the creativity and energy to attempt new works.[7]The New Yorker wrote that Prototype’s 11-day 2014 lineup produced more substance for the format than a decade of the New York City Opera. The magazine noted the festival’s equal time given to female artists as deviant from New York theater norms.[2]World premieres[edit]As of 2019, Prototype’s headlining shows tended to premiere outside of the festival.[8]References[edit]^ Jorden, James (January 7, 2019). “Joseph Keckler’s New Musical Is an Enigmatic Highlight of NYC’s Prototype Festival”.
