Cal Performances presents the US Premiere of American Modern Opera Company in Olivier Messiaen’s Harawi, Sep 27, 2024 at Zellerbach Hall; Pictured: Julia Bullock, Bobbi Jene Smith

US Premiere

Harawi, an American Modern Opera Company production, realizes Olivier Messiaen’s deeply affecting hour-long song cycle for voice and piano in a newly physicalized and dramatized dimension featuring company members soprano Julia Bullock, pianist Conor Hanick, and choreographers/dancers Bobbi Jene Smith and Or Schraiber, with direction by Zack Winokur. Moving from duet to quartet, the production breaks open Messiaen’s cycle, connects the relationship between movement and music, and grapples with the intensity of love and loss in the human experience.
