The Dream That Gave Birth to an Opera
One night, Yehuda Glantz had a revelatory dream.
In a vast desert beneath an infinite sky, a luminous presence approached him. As the light dissipated, he recognized a familiar figure. It was his father, with a serene smile and a wise gaze.
"Father..." Yehuda whispered, his heart filled with emotion and wonder.
The figure of his father, illuminated by a celestial light, looked at him tenderly and asked:
-What will you do with what has been given to you, my son?
-How will you transform pain into hope through your music?
The words resonated in his soul like a deep echo. Then, his father continued:
"Yehuda, throughout your life, you have created music that touches the soul. But now, there is something even greater that you must do. You have a mission that goes beyond everything you have created: to tell the story of Joseph through your art. Joseph’s journey—his betrayal, his suffering, his redemption—must be heard by the world. Your music will be the bridge between his story and those who seek hope."
Yehuda's father looked at him with intensity, conveying a deep certainty. "Let it flow from the depths of your being, my son. His message will touch hearts beyond time, beyond everything."
Upon waking, Yehuda felt the certainty of a profound calling. The image of Joseph, betrayed and then redeemed, merged with the vision of his father, who, with his wisdom, had shown him the way. With every link, every precise word and melody, the opera began to take shape. Melodies, harmonies, and eclectic rhythms intertwined with modern sounds, like an echo of the family legacy.
Thus, Joseph the Dreamer was born—a musical work, a mission of hope and redemption.
"The melody of a tear can become a hymn of redemption."
