DESCRIPTION:Mar 13\, 2026\nIn opera\, Erich Korngold is synonymous with the
  lush decadence of his occasionally revived early triumph Die Tote Stadt. 
 In the concert hall\, we sometimes hear his Violin Concerto\, which is lus
 h but not decadent at all. But mostly\, he’s remembered as the man who f
 led the Nazis\, wound up in Hollywood\, and invented movie music as we sti
 ll think of it today. Even when the movies were still in black and white (
 The Sea Hawk\, anyone?)\, Korngold was composing in Technicolor. But event
 ually\, he left Tinseltown behind\, hoping to reconnect with his Austro-Hu
 ngarian roots. Revolving around a fashion designer and the glittering diva
  he secretly adores\, Korngold’s operetta The Silent Serenade was concei
 ved for Broadway but never got there. Maybe romantic farce fueled with int
 rigue\, mistaken identities\, and characters who burst into melodious rapt
 ure at the drop of a hat were all just too retro for its time. How about n
 ow? Attend the U.S. premiere and find out. And if you haven’t already\, 
 discover Mannes Opera. Its own fizzy microcosm within the College of Perfo
 rming Arts at the New School\, Mannes Opera trains stars of tomorrow. Unde
 r the leadership of Emma Griffin\, who also directs The Silent Serenade\, 
 the students have explored repertory that embraces standards as well as in
 triguing curios like this one. Cris Frisco conducts.
LOCATION:Gerald W. Lynch Theater at John Jay College\, 524 W 59th St\, New
