The new opera La Callas celebrates Maria Callas, one of the most dynamic, influential, and beloved opera singers of the 20th century. She was an artist who revitalized her art form, brought new audiences to opera houses around the world, and left an indelible mark on the world. A strong-willed woman at a time that was cruel to such women, the charismatic diva was torn between her two greatest passions: opera and her love affair with the wealthy and powerful Aristotle Onassis, suffering in the throes of love, desire, conflict, and betrayal. Award-winning composer Clint Borzoni's lush and melodic music evokes the passion and drama of Maria Callas's legendary life and career.
