AINADAMAR
Moores
Opera
Center
at
The
University
of
Houston
presents
the
Houston
premiere
of
Osvaldo
Golijov
and
David
Henry
Hwang’s
Ainadamar
-
a
haunting
reflection
on
the
life
of
poet
and
playwright
Federico
García
Lorca,
whose
politics
and
sexuality
led
to
his
brutal
execution
during
the
Spanish
Civil
War.
Golijov’s
Grammy
award-winning
cinematic
score
grabs
you
from
the
very
first
beat
–
weaving
together
influences
from
around
the
world
in
a
mesmerising
mixture
of
opera
and
the
traditional
song
of
Andalusia.
