The ŷ���ڱ���Ƶ New Opera Workshop has just been announced for this summer and  including Lori Laitman’s opera “Ludlow,” based on the verse novel by ŷ���ڱ���Ƶ poet laureate David Mason about the deadly ŷ���ڱ���Ƶ coal mining strike.

By the time an opera production hits the floorboards, composers and performers have spent years transforming theatrical ideas and music for the stage. The ŷ���ڱ���Ƶ New Opera Workshop (ŷ���ڱ���Ƶ NOW) gives you the rare opportunity to observe this process and share your suggestions with the composers. The interactive workshop-style performances feature acclaimed opera composers working with ŷ���ڱ���Ƶ singers on new operas, on their way to professional world premieres. You’ll leave with exciting insights into the creative process when you experience opera from the ground up at ŷ���ڱ���Ƶ NOW!
