WORLD PREMIER ONE-ACT OPERA
By J.P. Redmond & Julia Hoch
ABOUT THE OPERA
There are stories that cry out to be told: to celebrate, to condemn, to connect. Anna and Joseph have just such a story to tell…if only this time they can get it right, finally. Inspired by the oral tradition of fairy tales and the archetypes they explore, The End: A Fairytale, brings to life a retelling of The Grimm Brothers’ “The Robber Bridegroom.”

Phoenix PRIME returns for music, drinks, and a big Phoenix first as we’re joined by soprano soloist Helen Zhibing Huang to tackle the music of Gustav Mahler, who is known for his epic symphonic journeys.
This program at the Artists for Humanity EpiCenter in Seaport pairs Mahler’s most gentle work, his Fourth Symphony (arranged for chamber orchestra by Iain Farrington), with music by Franz Schreker, a highly underrated contemporary of Mahler whose career was cut short by the rise of the Nazi power.

Singa Loh
Music by Jorge Sosa
Libretto by Cerise Lim Jacobs
Resonance Works opens its tenth anniversary season with the Pittsburgh premiere of Jorge Sosa and Cerise Lim Jacobs’ evocative contemporary opera, I am a Dreamer Who No Longer Dreams. A poignant and timely story, Dreamer explores the complex relationship between Rosa, an undocumented Mexican immigrant who is awaiting deportation, and Singa, her court-appointed attorney, an ethnically Chinese immigrant from Indonesia living in the U.S. on a green card. Through Rosa and Singa’s parallel yet divergent immigration experiences, Dreamer examines the complexities of American identity.
Dreamer‘s music is in Sosa’s original and personal voice which draws upon an eclectic mix of styles and influences, including traces of Asian and Mexican folk music, jazz, Afro-latin rhythms, as well as western classical traditions. A children’s chorus takes a central role in the opera, uplifting the voice and perspective of immigrant children through singers from the Pittsburgh Youth Chorus.
