A world premiere opera about the Fisk Jubilee Singers, the intrepid troupe of African American singers who changed music history. 

Unstaged performances of Stravinsky's Oedipus Rex and George Walker's Lilacs highlighted musical inadequacies and deprived audiences of the creative productions they've come to expect from this company.

Francisco Negrín gives his singers little help in a dark, boxy new staging, put together at frantic, last minute speed. 

Alessandro Talevi production for Festival O has sight gags and vaudeville tricks aplenty and features splendid voices in a fine cast. 

The pairing of Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Riders to the Sea with Rene Orth’sEmpty the House worked perfectly and did absolute justice to these two despair-filled operas.
