An Opera Talk with the creative team of Orpheus and Eurydice
In a recent Opera Talk at Tagney Jones Hall, dramaturg
Jonathan Dean sat down with stage director Chía Patiño, choreographer Donald
Byrd, and conductor Stephen Stubbs to discuss the creative vision behind our

and Eurydice. The conversation addressed how the ancient myth of
Orpheus and Eurydice reflects music’s power to express love and sorrow, and
explored how the opera can help us grapple with the pain of letting go.
