Rocket's Red Blare: Juventas New Music Ensemble

О событии

Juventas New Music Ensemble and Intermezzo present James Yannatos' opera "Rocket's Red Blare" at the Agassiz Theater at Harvard University.

Juventas New Music Ensemble teams up with Intermezzo, an “invaluable champion of new opera” (Boston Globe), for the world premiere performance of Rocket’s Red Blare. Together, the pair will bring to life a fantastical tale of blossoming forbidden love, mythical kingdoms with royal courts and yes…rockets.
