Christoph Wolff Distinguished Visiting Scholar: Anthony Roth Costanzo presents “Don’t Look Back”

John Knowles Paine Concert Hall

Don’t Look Back is a multidisciplinary evening conceived, curated, and performed by GRAMMY Award-winning countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo, in collaboration with Opera Omaha, the Morgan Library & Museum, and Harvard University. Featuring the music of Mozart, Gluck, and Handel, the performance breathes fresh life into the Morgan’s vast collection of original music manuscripts and first editions, and allows Costanzo to perform, quite literally, within these artifacts. Film director and photographer Pix Talarico gives audiences an unprecedented new vantage point to interact with these precious objects, colliding past with present.

Don’t Look Back is part of Costanzo’s MYTHS festival, a series of performances and events that explore the idea of myth in personal, societal, and historical contexts. MYTHS is presented in association with the Metropolitan Opera, where Costanzo will perform Orfeo ed Euridice beginning May 16, 2024. MYTHS is partially funded with support from the Mellon Foundation.

Free and open to all, tickets can be reserved via Eventbrite.

Free event parking will be available at the Broadway Garage.
