The work is based on the novel by author Khaled Hosseini with composer Sheila Silver and librettist Stephen Kitsakos working for several years to bring this work to the operatic stage. Six performers and seven musicians will present the work at 1 p.m. and again at 4 p.m. Reservations are requested at www.HudsonAreaLibrary.org. “A Thousand Splendid Suns” is scheduled for a world premiere performance by the Seattle Opera in 2020.
