Music by Laura KaminskyLibretto by David Cote
This intimate chamber opera sheds light on the tragedy of dementia and all those it touches. Lili, an elderly singer and composer with early dementia, struggles with her son, Dante, who has given up his career as a pianist to care for her. Dr. Klugman's study on music and memory brings Sunny, a young clarinetist, into their orbit. What is the connection between music and memory? Facing the challenge of this all-too-human condition demands the utmost in courage and sacrifice.
Composer Laura Kaminsky (As One), known for addressing social issues in her work, is “one of the top 35 female composers in classical music” (The Washington Post). Joined by playwright, librettist, and arts journalist David Cote, this production marks the West Coast premiere of this powerful and intimate opera.
