The program features music created by immigrants, children of immigrants, and artists influenced by cultures from around the world. Together, these works tell a larger story of how people from many backgrounds helped create the uniquely American sound of opera, musical theater, spirituals, and popular song. Through themes of love, longing, home, prejudice, hope, and perseverance, the program reflects the diverse voices that continue to shape America's cultural identity.
