Amahl and the Night Visitors

Amahl and the Night Visitors is a Christmas opera composed by Gian Carlo Menotti. It was first performed on television in 1951 and has since become a beloved holiday tradition.

The opera tells the story of a young boy named Amahl, who is disabled and lives with his mother in poverty. One night, they are visited by three wise men on their way to see the newborn King. The visitors bring gifts and share stories, which ultimately lead to a miraculous turn of events.

The score features a blend of lyrical melodies and rich harmonies, showcasing Menotti's unique style. The music enhances the emotional depth of the story, making it a captivating experience for audiences of all ages.
