*Company Premiere

North Carolina Opera's first ever Spanish language opera! Embark on a magical and mysterious journey along the mighty Amazon. Glamorous opera legend Florencia Grimaldi is traveling incognito by steamboat through the enchanted rainforest in hopes of finding her long lost love. Wracked by storms and a cholera outbreak, she and her fellow passengers are drawn deeper into the Amazon, where fantasy and reality intertwine, and their hopes and dreams are tested. 

Florencia en al Amazonas sounds and feels like Puccini and Debussy, with murmurs of Ravel and the film music of Technicolor epics. The music glistens like sun on the river; it is graceful and ravishing.” – Robert Levine, Bachtrack

“The Mexican composer’s style is firmly, richly tonal and melodically effusive, with soaring vocal lines; the orchestration dazzles.” – Andrew Farach-Colton, Gramophone

FEATURING Vanessa Vasquez, Richard Ollarsaba, Marlen Nahhas, Jason Karn, Levi Hernandez, and Claudia Chapa
CONDUCTED BY Joseph Mechavich
DIRECTED BY John Hoomes

The Spring Season opens with a playful and unique interpretation of Maurice Ravel’s “Boléro”, choreographed by the imaginative Lynne Taylor-Corbett. A “perfect” couple prepares for a “perfect” day at the beach. 

“The elements conspire against them to ruin their day,” Taylor-Corbett explains. “It’s just a pure, unadulterated fantasy.” 

Included in this program is a new ballet from Amy Hall Garner.

PROGRAM INCLUDES:

Boléro by Lynne Taylor-Corbett
