IBOC - International Brazilian Opera Company
The International Brazilian Opera Company (IBOC) is a New York-based 501c3 non-profit organization with a mission to support the creation and development of a new operatic repertoire that combines ideas from Brazilian and international artists while providing an educational structure for emerging talent.

IBOC supports communities at risk and immigrant artists. A group of professionals of Latinx, African-American, and Jewish origins funded IBOC. These artists and producers united to create opportunities for the underrepresented to collaborate in a cross-cultural environment. By expanding the reach of contributions to cultures not traditionally embraced by opera, we broaden the genre and create a wider audience. We are building an alternative pipeline for creators: a path that is pregnant with innovation, excitement, and emotional impact. Diversity is embedded in our DNA.

The three pillars of our mission:
- Creation of new repertoire
- International collaboration
- The creation of an educational structure to embrace emerging artists

We believe that opera is the art-form of the future. It can be a multimedia event that encompasses cutting-edge technology in the service of a ritual of human connection. It unites all art forms, providing an experience that has no parallel. We understand opera as a community-building effort.
