SUMMARY:CSUN Opera: "The Juniper Tree\," by Philip Glass
DESCRIPTION:CSUN OPERA\n“The Juniper Tree” by Philip Glass\nShigemi Matsumoto Recital Hall \nThursday – Friday – Saturday\, April 16-18 at 7:30 PM\, and Sunday April 19th at 2:30 PM \nConductor / Music Director: Mercedes Juan Musotto\nStage Director: Maurice Godin\nOpera Area Director: Hugo Vera\nDark\, mesmerizing\, and emotionally powerful\, The Juniper Tree is the haunting operatic retelling of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale by Philip Glass and Robert Moran— a story of jealousy\, innocence\, and transformation. Combining Glass’s minimalism language with Moran’s tonal\, dramatically driven style\, the opera weaves hypnotic rhythms and luminous vocal lines into a deeply human narrative that is at once unsettling and strangely beautiful. \nThis intimate chamber opera draws the audience inside a mythic world where cruelty and compassion collide\, and where loss ultimately gives way to transcendence. With its stripped-down instrumentation and poetic storytelling\, The Juniper Tree offers a gripping theatrical experience that feels both ancient and startlingly modern. \nPresented in the intimate acoustics of Shigemi Matsumoto Recital Hall\, this production invites audiences into a powerful and unforgettable journey through one of Philip Glass’s most haunting works. \nSuggested Parking via Kiosks in Lot B1 \nTICKETS: $10 to $22
