Ojai Youth Opera (OYO) will premiere their first original commissioned opera, “Nightingale & The Tower” on Saturday, May 18, and Sunday, May 19, 2019, at Ojai’s famed Libbey Bowl. This full-scale production is an electronic chamber opera created for six professional adult singers, twenty nine youth OYO members, ages 7-18, synthesizers, chamber orchestra, and long-stringed harp.

Combining elements of digital and acoustic sounds manipulated in real time, this pioneering new work from groundbreaking composer Jason Treuting (So Percussion), Grammy award-winning musician Mikael Jorgensen (Wilco) and OYO Founder and Artistic Director Rebecca Comerford, melds the elements of a rich neo-classical score, alongside electronic and synthesized textures to create a bold, multi-disciplinary work of art never before seen.
