• ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

  In honor of the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, experience a profound evening of chamber opera by three of the most celebrated American composers of the 20th and 21st centuries — Arnold Schoenberg, John Adams, and Jake Heggie.

  Presented by Lyrica Classic, Montecchi vs Opera, Music of Our Time, and the Оркестр Новая Москва (New Moscow Orchestra), this event is a tribute to the victims of war and a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit.

  🎼 Arnold Schoenberg – Ode to Napoleon (1942)
  A sharp philosophical protest against tyranny, composed during WWII by a European émigré who found refuge in the U.S., based on a poem by Lord Byron.

  🎼 John Adams – The Wound-Dresser (1988)
  A haunting setting of Walt Whitman’s Civil War poetry, capturing silent compassion in wartime hospitals.

  🎼 Jake Heggie – Another Sunrise (2012)
  The true story of a sleepless night in Auschwitz, as Polish writer Krystyna Żywulska confronts the ghosts of survival.

  Through the voices of a dictator, a soldier, and a survivor, these operas open a space for reflection on history, empathy, and moral choice.
