Paul Salerni's Haunted

Catch Paul Salerni's opera Haunted at Sierra Madre Playhouse!

From oral tradition to hymns and chants to modern singer-songwriters, poetry and music have intertwined and sung stories to rapt listeners throughout the ages. On Haunted, composer Paul Salerni uses this time-honored pairing to present a quartet of contemporary works for solo voice, dancers, and chamber ensemble. Dana Gioia’s poetry and Salerni’s musical acumen combine to form a rich and mysterious work that combines dance and opera. Haunted presents a passionate but doomed love story wrapped around a ghost story, leading to a conclusion no one will predict.
