Wagner College Opera Presents SOMETHING MORE… In December

Wagner College Opera will present SOMETHING MORE..., an opera scenes concert featuring masterpieces by Donizetti, Verdi, Mozart, Strauss, Bernstein, Menotti, and more. The scenes explore characters yearning for hope and revenge, seeking to be seen and heard, and dreaming of better and oblivion.

"Wagner College Opera is unique because it offers our students the opportunity to try something new and explore beyond their artistic and musical comfort zones," says Director of Opera, Vincent Graña.

"The most incredible moment in the rehearsal room and on the stage is watching these young performers realize they have achieved something they never thought possible. The sense of pride and joy they feel is palpable when they experience the vocal and dramatic thrill of the operatic repertoire."
