Svadba tells the story of a bride-to-be on the eve of her wedding as four of her closest friends and an elder family member gather to help her prepare for the big event. This chamber opera dramatizes the ritual of preparing for marriage, the importance of preserving tradition, and the true power of friendship and community. Written for six soprano and mezzo-soprano voices, Svadba’s mesmerizing music by Serbian composer Ana Sokolović joins a new, classically LBO staging aboard The Queen Mary.
