¡Celebra el patrimonio musical de Estados Unidos con MORE Opera!

Nos emociona presentar nuestra nueva serie American Composers Series, dedicada a explorar las historias, la música y el legado de compositores estadounidenses desde el pasado hasta la actualidad, en celebración de America 250. Cada publicación incluirá datos interesantes, obras vocales poco conocidas, y música patriótica que ha marcado generaciones.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the premiere of Turandot, the final opera by Giacomo Puccini. A century later, its powerful music and unforgettable story continue to captivate audiences around the world.
At MORE Opera, Turandot holds a special place in our history and our hearts. We had the joy of presenting this world premiere performance of Maestro Anton Coppola’s extraordinary alternate ending to Puccini’s work under Maestro’s baton in 2017 and will present repeat performances in 2027 at LaGuardia Performing Arts Center, conducted by Gregory Buchalter.
Happy 100th Anniversary – April 25, 2026!
