Boston Modern Orchestra Project
Odyssey Opera

Two of Boston’s leading musical ensembles—the Boston Modern Orchestra Project (BMOP) and Odyssey Opera—unite on one stage for a special concert honoring the great Pulitzer-winning composer Gunther Schuller (1925-2015). Thanks to these organizations’ diverse aesthetics, the program offers a new sound as it weaves jazz vernacular into the symphonic and operatic world. Made legible for even the youngest ears, Schuller’s Journey Into Jazz and The Fisherman and His Wife will be performed by members of BMOP, Odyssey Opera, led by conductor Gil Rose.
