Description
Pre-show discussion at 7pm“The group’s charisma is inescapable and infectious, they electrify the classics for a new generation.”
– Time Out New York
No one puts a fresher, bolder, contemporary spin on opera’s greatest hits than The East Village Opera Company. Consisting of a powerhouse rock band, a string quartet, and two outstanding vocalists, The Company embraces “the poposity of rock and the pomposity of opera” to bring the towering emotion and timeless musicality of opera into the 21st century. “We have a profound love and respect for the opera,” co-founder Peter Kiesewalter insists. “But it’s so dramatic... you need a little bit of irreverence in it.”
