As part of the Susan Howe Music & Speaker Series, the Highland House Museum is proud to present Svadba, an opera film made during the pandemic and filmed on Ballston Beach.
Svedba is a stunningly beautiful, 55-minute film adapted from Serbian composer Ana Sokolovic’s libretto and a cappella score where six women celebrate on the eve of a wedding.
Svadba was named as Winner for Artistic Creation at the 2nd annual OPERA America Awards for Digital Excellence in Opera. Svadba was released by Boston Lyric Opera (co-produced with Opera Philadelphia) in 2022 and is composed by Ana Sololovic, directed by Shura Baryshnikov with a screenplay by Hannah Shepard, and conducted by Daniela Candillari—an all woman creative ensemble with an all-woman cast of actors, dancers, and singers.
A reception with complementary wine and light refreshments will follow the viewing.
TICKETS WILL BE LIMITED TO 60 GUESTS. TICKETS ON SALE ONLINE ONLY FOR $35.
