Amine Hachem as Apsu, God of Water, in the opera Gilgamesh
Amine Hachem recently performed the tenor role of Apsu, god of water and creator of life, in the world premiere of Gilgamesh at the Cerritos Performing Arts Center in California on March 28 and 29.
Sung in both English and Akkadian, one of the world’s oldest recorded languages, the role draws from humanity’s earliest epic and brings its timeless themes to the modern operatic stage.

A Note from Amine Hachem
“The Epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest surviving literary epic in human history, written more than four thousand years ago. At its heart lies a story of friendship, loss, and the human search for meaning.
In times like these, when the world feels heavy, it is humbling to step into a work that reminds us how long humanity has wrestled with these same questions.
I am grateful to be part of bringing this ancient story to the stage, and to continue making music as a quiet reminder that creation is our answer to destruction.”
