Om evenemanget
🎶 Join us for the 2026 May Festival Finale, a remarkable celebration showcasing the magic of American music! Directed by the talented Julia Bullock, who will perform as Bess, this event offers a deeply personal rendition of Gershwin's legendary opera Porgy and Bess.
With stirring pieces like William Grant Still’s Plain-Chant for America, advocating for unity and resilience, and Stephen Paulus’s Prayers & Remembrances, aiming to spread hope and healing, you're in for an enlightening experience.
