Noye's Fludde (Noah's Flood)- an opera for the whole family by Benjamin Britten
Orchestra Miami invites you to experience the biblical story of Noah and his ark, as it come alive in Benjamin Britten's Noye's Fludde, an opera for the whole family. Based on the Chester Miracle Plays, Britten's piece combines the voices of the students from Orchestra Miami's Liberty City Sings Performance Project and the African Heritage Cultural Arts Center, with the talents of students from the South Florida Youth Symphony, the Sunrise School of Miami Orchestra and many others performing alongside the professional musicians from Orchestra Miami, to present a pageant of biblical proportions!
Noye's Fludde features two of Miami's most esteemed professional opera singers, alongside a cast of students from area public schools. Bass-baritone Lloyd Reshard, Jr. stars as Noye, and soprano Jouvanca Jean-Baptiste dazzles in the comic role of Mrs. Noye. Noye's sons and wives are sung by Luis Lafaurie, Alejandra Gonzalez, Michael Gil, Ybriana Rodriguez and Amanda Lopez- all 6th graders at the Miami Arts Studio @ Zelda Glazer Middle School and Elysabeth Bengochea, a 5th grader at South Miami Arts Magnet K-8 School. The "Gossips" and the Animals of the Ark will be sung by students from the Liberty City Sings Performance Program and the African Heritage Cultural Arts Center. The production will be directed by renowned theater director Michael Yawney and conducted by Orchestra Miami's Artistic Director Elaine Rinaldi, with costume design by Marina Pareja and set design by Ainex Carmona. The performance is being presented in association with the Miami Children's Initiative, the African Heritage Cultural Arts Center with major sponsorship by the Center for Social Change and the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs and the Florida Council on Arts and Culture.
