Created by our resident composer & librettist team and premiered as a film in the historic Varsity Theatre in 2024, Dreams Have No Borders is a unique chamber opera based on the real-life stories of our region's Latino immigrant community. The film is the product of 5 years of community building, story collection, and artistic creativity. As part of the project, we developed a year-long mentorship program for teens in the Unite Oregon Forward Youth program to create and exhibit their original artwork in a professional gallery.

In the fall of 2019, Anima Mundi Productions proudly partnered with Atlanta-based nonprofit Pianos for Peace to launch Pianos for Peace Oregon. A combination of local professional and student artists painted two pianos, which we placed in downtown Ashland. In addition to creating our own Pianos for Peace featuring Oregon artists, we invited Malek Jandali, the founder of Pianos for Peace, to perform on our concert series and offer a week of free community events in collaboration with the R.V. Peace Choir and others.

Experience this uniquely staged concert with poetry and artistic design by Tiziana DellaRovere, who conceived it as "a witnessing of each other’s beauty by exploring European and African American musical traditions through the lens of sisterhood. It is the beginning of a conversation through poetry and music to repair the sorrow, injustice, and separation that began centuries ago." Featuring singers Lindsay Abdou and Brooke Iva Lohman with violinist Lesa Terry and pianist Joe Williams.

In February 2025, Anima Mundi Productions brought world-renowned Israeli cellist Amit Peled to perform in Ashland. During his time with us, we produced "Cello Day," a daylong educational event for all cello and bass students from four area high schools—Ashland, Grants Pass, and North and South Medford—totaling more than 35 students in all. The day included mentorship, coaching, lessons, and master classes, and an opportunity for the students to play as a cello ensemble under Mr. Peled's guidance.

In the fall of 2024, we presented Grammy-winning Ukrainian pianist Dr. Nadia Shpachenko performing a program called Unbreakable Spirit: Music of Resilience featuring music by Ukrainian composers, including the world premiere of new works responding to the invasion. During her residency with us in Ashland, we produced a free Cultural Fair that celebrated Ukrainian food, music, art, and culture while raising funds for our local Ukrainian refugee community and also for the needs of Ashland’s wartorn Ukrainian sister city, Sviatohirsk.

For their 2018 anniversary season, the Rogue Valley Symphony commissioned Anima Mundi Productions’ resident composer Ethan Gans-Morse and resident poet Tiziana DellaRovere to create an original program symphony in collaboration with Wasco/Warm Springs musician Brent Florendo, who was at that time a professor of Native American Studies and Native Nations Liaison for Southern Oregon University. It explores the Native American legacy of Southern Oregon, the region’s Trail of Tears, and a path toward healing and renewal.

As part of our 2021 video festival series, Anima Mundi Productions partnered with Portland-based Cappella Romana to present a video realization of composer Robert Kyr's environmental oratorio, A Time for Life, featuring the composer's own beautiful nature photography.
