Sure to be one of the most widely heralded musical events of 2022/23, PROXIMITY is a gripping, powerful trio of new works that confronts head-on some of the greatest challenges affecting us as a society: yearning for connection in a world driven by technology; the devastating impact of gun violence on cities and neighborhoods; and the need to respect and protect our natural resources.

Yuval Sharon introduces you to PROXIMITY: A TRIO OF NEW AMERICAN OPERAS

Sure to be one of the most widely heralded musical events of 2022/23, Proximity is a gripping, powerful trio of new works that confronts head-on some of the greatest challenges affecting us as a society: yearning for connection in a world driven by technology; the devastating impact of gun violence on cities and neighborhoods; and the need to respect and protect our natural resources. As the story zooms in and out from the individual to the community to the cosmic, we find ourselves in a compelling snapshot of 21st century life, with all of its complex intersections and commonalities. This new Lyric commission, bringing together a complement of some of the most important creative minds of our time, including winners of the Pulitzer Prize, Grammy Awards, and the MacArthur Genius Grant, promises to be by turns riveting, provocative, and inspiring.

Proximity: A Trio of New American Operas by Various, Wed 29 Mar 2023, From (2023/2023), Directed by Yuval Sharon,, Conductor Kazem Abdullah, Lyric Opera House, Chicago, United States
