A Night Celebrating Iconic American Composers


PC: Oriada Islami


On Friday, November 8th 2024, Merkin Hall at the Kaufman Music Center in NYC, came alive with the sounds of American composers, unfolding before an eager audience.


A remarkable opening night of The Opera Tech, "A Celebration of Iconic American Composers", was led by Founder and Production Artistic Director Oriada Islami. The event offered a dynamic and vibrant program, taking the audience on a journey through a rich tapestry of performances that spanned opera, instrumental music, and dance.


The diverse lineup included the soaring voices of opera singers,  soprano Danielle Walker and tenor David Morgans, who brought the stage to life, while the virtuosic clarinet of Igli Tuga added a unique instrumental flair. Maestro David Wroe conducted a 15-piece orchestra with remarkable energy, guiding the ensemble through each piece with both precision and passion. The evening also showcased the elegance of ballroom dance, with performances by elegant ballroom dancers.


The program left little to be desired. The mix of operatic vocals, instrumental mastery, and elegant dance was not only a celebration of American composers but also a testament to Islami’s ability to bring these elements together in a seamless, powerful way. Through her efforts, Oriada Islami continues to quietly but steadily build something truly special in New York City—an opportunity for artists and audiences to connect, share, and experience the transformative power of music. What she’s creating is more than just performances; it’s a community that celebrates the unifying force of music, one that resonates far beyond the stage.


By the evening’s end, a standing ovation from the audience felt like a natural conclusion to what was clearly an exceptional performance. A Celebration of Iconic American Composers was a moment of connection—a reminder of the transformative power of music and the unifying force it holds for all who experience it.


Please look forward to The Opera Tech's upcoming shows next year.
