Be a part of "Amazonas" - A tonal opera written by Laura Clayton in 2020 with fresh, pungent harmonies, Brazilian rhythmic energy, and lyric legato vocal lines.

Although internationally recognized for her serial composition, and a student of Charles Wuorinen, Ms. Clayton, in a burst of energy, has created a mythical, tuneful, and accessible story of the search for bliss, nirvana, or the "third bank of the river". Does one leave home and family to find ultimate meaning, to find God?
