Jorge Sosa is a Mexican-born composer, currently residing in New York City. Opera News described his telematic opera “Alice in the Pandemic” as “wildly imaginative, musically powerful and technically courageous” and commended “Sosa’s broad stylistic palette (which) incorporated lyrical impassioned melodies, kooky carnival music, and efficient recitative”. The Music Blog “I Care if You Listen” described Sosa’s opera “I Am A Dreamer Who No Longer Dreams” as “well-balanced to the story’s narrative, and his vocal writing aroused strong emotional peaks and valleys, magnified by the characters’ impassioned performances”.

In 2022 Jorge was selected as a finalist for The Atlanta Opera 96 Hour Opera Project. Jorge was commissioned to write a new sextet “Rocola” for Tian Hui Ng and the Victory Players, with a premiere date of June 2022. Jorge was also commissioned to develop a new work “The Rising Tide” for Boston Children’s Chorus on the subject of climate change, and “The Beehive,” a new comic opera for University of North Iowa. Jorge is currently collaborating with American Lyric Theater to write a new opera “Splintered,” co-composed with Justine Chen, with libretto by Lila Palmer. “Splintered” was awarded a 2022 Opera America Repertoire Development Grant. Jorge is an Associate Professor at Molloy College. Jorge’s music is available on all the major music download sites and through the website www.jorgesosa.com.
