This groundbreaking program seeks to examine the question of “who owns culture?” through a two-part music and dance exploration. 

The first half of the program will feature two extraordinary artists, tenor Karim Sulayman and guitarist Sean Shibe, performing music from their award-winning album “Broken Branches.” Sulayman and Shibe’s program weaves baroque music of Giulio Caccini and Claudio Monteverdi with traditional Sephardic and Arab/Andalusian works and ballads by contemporary composers and singers from Egypt and Lebanon, and frames the program with songs of Purcell and Britten.

RE | CLAIM:  Ensemble Amedyez and Kalanidhi Dance 

John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts

Join us for the modern premiere of an opéra-ballet that broke the mold for its time by putting contemporary characters on stage. True to its innovative roots, this present-day retelling cleverly swaps the original muses' debate over the qualities of comedy and tragedy for composers, librettists, and choreographers debating which of their art forms garners the best reviews!

With renowned conductor Christophe Rousset on the podium and Catherine Turocy directing, this witty, joyful, female-centric tale will have you laughing and cheering until the end. Thalie promises to uphold Opera Lafayette’s reputation as "one of the most creatively game and artistically sound operations in the business."(The Washington Post).
