MAZEPPA by Tchaikovsky
"If it at first it seemed a little foolhardy to mount such a big work on a small scale, any doubts were quickly laid to rest right from the opening women's chorus. You could just sit back, forget the spectacle and concentrate on Tchaikovsky's luscious vocal writing."
Wayne Gooding, OPERA CANADA

VIRGIL THOMSON
THE MOTHER OF US ALL

Sunday, May 22, 2022

This dramatic opera imaginatively chronicles the story of Susan B. Anthony and the women's suffrage movement. In a vivid and gripping age for women's rights an impressive character emerges that is both dynamic and pioneering; as relevant and transcendental today as it was for those disenfranchised on the basis of gender, race, and sexuality a century and a half ago.

Kate Carver, Music Director
Robert Cooper, Chorus Director
