Long before Gounod’s famous "Faust," a 26-year-old French composer, Louise Bertin, took on Goethe’s epic drama and created something entirely her own. Raw, visceral, and unfiltered, "Fausto" unfolds as the story of an aging, disillusioned scientist who strikes a desperate bargain with the Devil to reclaim youth and pursue pleasure. Blending classical elegance with romantic intensity, Bertin offers a strikingly eclectic yet deeply personal musical voice. Both bold and deeply human, Opera Neo’s American premiere of "Fausto" invites audiences to rediscover a forgotten masterpiece and encounter a uniquely youthful female perspective on one of Western culture’s most enduring stories. Peter Kozma directs the production and conducts the Opera Neo Orchestra, performing on period instruments. Opera Neo on Facebook / Instagram

Semblance Project: Multiplicity/Presence is an evening of new music for soloists and electronics conceived and curated by award-winning composer Daniel (Jingyang) Cui, exploring Asian presence in contemporary classical music as an active, generative force. The program features premieres of four new works for solo or duo and electronics by Cui, each created through close collaboration with the performers and shaped by their own cultural backgrounds, personal histories, and artistic experiences. Rather than presenting a single narrative of identity, the concert foregrounds multiplicity and examines how layered identities take form through sound, gesture, and performance practice. The electronics and human machine interaction elements are designed in collaboration with Qianyi Rose Sun, whose work engages questions of technology, agency, and co creation in performance. The concert also includes excerpts from Mongolian Suite for solo cello and My Windows for solo piano by Lei Liang, a leading figure in contemporary music whose work has played a significant role in expanding how Asian histories and sonic traditions operate within global new music contexts. Together, the program brings emerging voices into dialogue with an established lineage, framing Asian presence as something that reshapes the concert space from within. The concert is free and open to the public, with a post concert reception where audience members are invited to meet the performers and composers. Date and Time: Thursday, Jan. 8, 2026, 7 p.m. Location: Conrad Prebys Concert Hall, UC San Diego Admission: Free
