and have provided music education experiences for the young and old alike.
Their mission is to develop a new repertoire by combining
the work of artists' perceived borders
AMBITION IS LIMITLESS
A 12 person orchestra took us from
classic to modern operas leaving everyone in awe.
Composer Joao MacDowell wrote Plastic Flowers
in dedication to his friend who passed away
during the AIDS epidemic.
The opera will debut to the public in 2023.
The International Brazilian Opera Company donates education to an after school program in
Washington Heights, Uptown Dreamers,
managed by Coach Dave Crenshaw, a graduate of Hunter High School.
Teen star cellist, Jon Luc, attends the program and has already performed at Carnegie Hall and
The Met Opera.
