In a special concert featuring works for voice and piano by living Black composers, Tulsa Opera will honor the resilience of Black Tulsans and Black America one hundred years after the Tulsa Race Massacre. Co-curated by Metropolitan Opera Pianist and Assistant Conductor Howard Watkins and Tulsa Opera Artistic Director Tobias Picker, "Greenwood Overcomes" features works by 23 living Black composers to be performed by eight Black artists. The program includes four new works commissioned by Tulsa Opera—the company’s first-ever commissions in its 73 year history—and eight world premieres in total.

Please note: Audience size will be limited due to COVID-19 restrictions. Live-streaming options are available to ticket holders.
