Cincinnati Opera and CCM Opera's joint Opera Fusion: New Works program presents excerpts from Castor and Patience with music by composer Gregory Spears and a libretto by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Tracy K. Smith. The new work tells the story of African American cousins who find themselves at odds over the fate of a historic parcel of land they have inherited in the American South. Castor and Patience has been commissioned by Cincinnati Opera in honor of the company’s 100th Anniversary Season in 2020.
