Works by Duparc, Ravel, Saint-Saëns, Quilter, Vaughan Williams, and traditional songs from Egypt and Samoa The wife and husband duo of soprano Amina Edris and tenor Pene Pati returns to the Bay Area— where they were Adler Fellows in San Francisco Opera’s prestigious training program, and where both have enjoyed career-launching star turns in major productions in recent years. Edris, who was born in Egypt and raised in New Zealand, portrayed Cleopatra in the world premiere of John Adams’ Antony and Cleopatra in the fall of 2022. Pati, who was born in Samoa and also grew up in New Zealand, transitioned from understudy to headliner in the San Francisco Opera’s production of Gounod’s Romeo and Juliet three seasons before. In their recital together, audiences can expect a varied program of songs traversing eras and continents.
