When Pytor Ilyich Tchaikovsky (composer of The Nutcracker) set Aleksandr Pushkin’s novel to music, he created one of the very best Russian operas, Eugene Onegin.
It’s a classic tale of love and loss. When she loved him, he wasn’t interested. When he changed his mind, she had moved on. AO’s production of Eugene Onegin will be one of most exquisite operas ever presented in the Great Land – and the first Russian Opera produced by AO.
This dazzling musical extravaganza will move your soul and fill your heart with joy. Guest artists join Alaska’s greatest operatic vocal talents and the AO Orchestra to perform an evening of opera’s most beautiful and passionate music. Love binds us together!
With music that’s featured in just about every classic mafia movie, Pagliacci (Clowns) is one of the most touching and powerful combinations of music and theater ever to hit the stage. If you think opera is for ‘other folks’, think again! Love drives him crazy!
Sister Angelica
This brilliant jewel by master composer, Giacomo Puccini, is an incredible story about human weakness and struggle. A good woman’s mistake brings scorn and loss but she finds salvation in super-human faith. Love gives her power!
