Myers serves as the Sarah and Ernest Butler Principal Conductor & Artistic Advisor at Austin Opera where, in addition to leading performances, he participates in the artistic strategy and development of the Company, including innovative projects such as the "All-Star Concert" (a national PBS special filmed and released during Covid), a new production of Puccini’s "Tosca" at the Circuit of the Americas (America’s only Formula One track), a film of David T.
