The Dybbuk

The Dybbuk is the most famous story in the Hebrew tradition. In this multi-media chamber opera adaptation, subtitled “Between Two Worlds,” composer Ofer Ben-Amots intertwines folk elements with contemporary textures to create a haunting self-contained world, while multiple live video projections combine to tell a powerful story of transcendent passion between two ill-fated lovers.
