Transatlantic (aka The People's Choice) is a Grand Opera in 3 acts by George Antheil written in 1928 to a libretto by the composer.[1] It was premiered in Frankfurt on May 25, 1930. Though a critical success the work ran for only 6 performances and was not performed again during Antheil's lifetime.
It has been subsequently revived in 1998 by the Minnesota Opera, and 2002 by the Schleswig-Holstein Landestheater of Flensburg, Germany.
The work is scored for a large orchestra with soloists and chorus.
