Terence Blanchard’s stirring drama returns following its landmark company premiere in 2021, with bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green starring as Charles, a young man faced with a fateful decision. Soprano Latonia Moore reprises her heartbreaking portrayal as Charles’s mother, Billie, with rising soprano Brittany Renee doing triple duty as Charles’s love interest, Greta, as well as the embodiments of Loneliness and Destiny. James Robinson and Camille A. Brown’s gripping production includes what is surely the only step dance in opera. Evan Rogister conducts Blanchard’s score, which powerfully melds opera and jazz.

Lincoln Center

In his final program as Music Director, Louis Langrée and the CSO share the stage one more time for a performance that will pay tribute to highlights of their time together over the past 11 years. Grammy Award-winning soprano Latonia Moore will join the CSO for the world premiere of a new orchestral song cycle by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Anthony Davis, whose piece You Have the Right to Remain Silent profoundly impacted Louis and left a poignant impression on livestream viewers at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Louis' Grand Finale

Cincinnati Music Hall

“We will finish our season with an opera. Tosca. I was researching for a while. Which opera should we do? There are so many. And, should we do an opera? After all, we are a symphony orchestra.  But at the end it’s about music. Powerful music. We will have internationally recognized singers from New York City’s Metropolitan Opera: Latonia Moore, Alan Held and Adam Smith. And we will have our full orchestra, giving life to this dramatic score.”
