L'ENFANT PRODIGUE

AT THE EUTOPIA CONFERENCE

Saturday September 10, 2016 | 3 PM | Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanical Garden 

1000 Richmond Terrace, Staten Island, NY 10301

From Bare Opera's 2015 production of Debussy's L'enfant Prodigue, comes this adapted revival in collaboration with Floating Opera. The short opera performed with piano chronicles the return of the "Prodigal Son." After much distance and pain, Lia's son Azael returns to her and Simeon. This rarely performed work touches on themes of forgiveness, unwavering love and faith all set to rich lyrical harmonies indicative of Debussy's later work. The conference is free with RSVP.
