The International Brazilian Opera Company (IBOC) is a New York-based non-profit (501c3) organization with a mission to support the creation of a new operatic repertoire that combines ideas from Brazilian and international artists while providing an educational structure for emerging talent. A leader in cultivating underrepresented voices in opera, IBOC supports communities at risk and immigrant artists. A group of professionals of Latinx, African-American, and Jewish origins founded IBOC. These artists and producers united to create opportunities for collaboration in a cross-cultural environment. As a result, we are expanding the reach of contributions to cultures not traditionally embraced by opera. We broaden the genre and create a wider audience. In addition, we are building an alternative pipeline for creators: a path that is pregnant with innovation, excitement, and emotional impact.
