Creation by Osvaldo Golijov & David Henry Hwang
· Symphony Hall · Boston
Classical
Creation, by Osvaldo Golijov with a concept by David Henry Hwang and lyrics by Leah Hager Cohen, takes place Thursday, November 12, 2026, at 7:30 PM at Symphony Hall in Boston. Golijov responds to Haydn's oratorio The Creation with a work of questioning and celebration that explores the indifferent cosmos alongside humanity's capacity for both cruelty and tenderness, performed by a roster of cross-genre performers. The piece works on a scale comparable to Golijov's La Pasión según San Marcos, whose American premiere was given at Symphony Hall in 2001.
