VC LIVE | "A Sweet Silence in Cremona" Opera Sneak Peek

The stream features composer Roberto Scarcella Perino, librettist Mark Campbell, soprano Jessica Fishenfeld, soprano and violinist Andrea Obiso

We’re coming to you from New York for a sneak peek of the upcoming “A Sweet Silence in Cremona” Opera.

The comic opera is inspired by an event in recent history when the mayor of the Italian city imposed a moratorium on urban noise while the Museum of Violins painstakingly recorded some of its renowned string instruments for posterity.

The production was co-presented by the Center for Contemporary Opera and Casa Italiana Zerilli - Marimò.
