One of opera’s most original voices lets passion and poetry overflow

Flamenco, rumba rhythms, and classical singing are woven together by one of today’s most exciting composers, Osvaldo Golijov.  Ainadamar (“Fountain of Tears”) tells the tragic story of legendary poet, playwright, and national icon Federico Garcia Lorca, assassinated by fascists during the Spanish Civil War.  The score is “destined to be among the great musical achievements of our time,” raves the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Ainadamar by Golijov, From (2023/2023), Directed by Deborah Colker,, Conductor Paolo Bortolameolli, Detroit Opera House, Detroit, United States
