With the new @MetOpera production of Carmen, “we were looking for ways to draw an audience in in a different way,” director @carriecracknell tells me. “It’s a provocative, sexual, dark story.” Tomorrow, audiences can watch a live performance in theaters around the world.

Music – universal language that 🇺🇦 uses to tell the world about its desire for freedom. A language that you hear with your soul. This summer, Ukrainian Freedom Orchestra will go on a European tour for the second time. Power of art will defeat aggression, Ukraine will win with it.
Maestro @kerilynnwilson and the Ukrainian Freedom Orchestra reunite this summer for its second tour in defense of Ukraine’s cultural legacy. Under the patronage of First Lady @ZelenskaUA, the orchestra will perform works by Beethoven and Ukrainian composer Yevhen Stankovych.
