About the event

Songs in Flight by Shawn E Okpebholo at Indiana University South Bend
South Bend Lyric Opera is celebrating our 10th Season in 2025/2026!

We are excited to announce our first production will be “Songs In Flight”, a contemporary opera which premiered at the MET in January 2023.

This 12 movement song cycle by Shawn E Okpebholo draws inspiration from the Freedom on the Move database of advertisements for runaway enslaved individuals. It explores their untold stories with texts by poets Tsitsi Jaji, Crystal Simone Smith, and Tyehimba Jess. The work incorporates styles including spirituals, folk tunes, elegies, and protest songs, each song offering a unique historical narrative and emotional depth.
