The Glenn Korff School of Music’s student-led opera will present ‘The Tender Land’ at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 22 and 3 p.m. Feb. 24 in Kimball Recital Hall.
Composed by Aaron Copland, the opera takes place in a Depression-era rural community and depicts the life of a young girl, her family and two migrant workers in a coming-of-age tale that reflects the hardworking spirit of the Midwest.
A pre-performance talk will be held 45 minutes before the beginning of each performance in the lower lobby of Kimball Recital Hall.
Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for students and seniors. To buy tickets in advance, contact the Lied Center Box Office at 402-472-4747 or visit the Lied website.
