For the new season, James Gaffigan is bringing a piece of his homeland New York to the Komische Oper Berlin! While our General Music Director has found his adopted home here, many prominent European composers headed for the safe haven of America in the 20th century. New York opened up influential professional opportunities for Antonín Dvořák and Gustav Mahler. Kurt Weill worked on the up-and-coming musical on Broadway. Erich Wolfgang Korngold laid the foundations for the film music genre in Hollywood and his soundtracks inspired film music legend John Williams.
