Opera Cambridge, formerly Cambridge Chamber Ensemble, stages Kurt Weill's Down in the Valley in an evening of Weill titled Coming to America. Inspired by Weill's love of American folk songs, the short opera, written in 1948 to a libretto by Arnold Sundgaard, tells the story of the doomed love between Brack and Jenny. The company's production of Handel's Samson won first place in The American Prize in Opera Performance.
