Upcoming Concerts
MOZART’S REQUIEM
Sat, Jan 11th - 7:00PM | Sun, Jan 12th - 2:30 PM
First United Methodist Church
If you’ve seen the movie Amadeus, you might think you know the story behind Mozart’s Requiem - but you would be wrong. In this concert, we’ll lay out the true story of this remarkable piece, highlighting the individual contributions from as many as five (or possibly six!) different composers who helped complete the music after Mozart’s death. You will learn all there is to know about the many layers of deception and mystery surrounding this piece, before we perform it for you in its entirety.
ALL ABOUT LOVE
Sat, Feb 22nd - 7:00PM
Broadmoor Community Church
Lucy is a woman looking for love. All About Love tells Lucy’s story as she navigates three different decades of her life, and three different stages of her relationships, through three short operas.
We start in a college dorm room in 1984, where Lucy is struggling with the ups and downs of young love. Then, happiness abounds in 1994, with an upbeat comedy that ends in a successful marriage proposal. Finally, we check into Elle’s marriage a decade later, in 2004, to see that not all has ended exactly as expected.
Joining Lucy along her journey is the omnipresent telephone…bringing her both closer to and further from true love.

Superstar violinist Lun Li takes on Bartók’s incredibly difficult Violin Concerto No. 2; meanwhile, the winner of our 2023 Emerging Soloist Competition, Ben Albertson, will redefine what you think is possible on the harp with a concert piece by Gabriel Pierné. We have paired these two incredible performers with a musical devotional by Florence Price and Ravel’s beloved evocation of the 16th-century Spanish court dance: the pavane.
