O,D,E : a text score chamber opera for four solo vocalists and small ensemble

by Sage Jane Harlow (2023)

Work Overview

A text score chamber opera. The piece consists of simple text scores for the ensemble for each character. The ensemble support the vocalists while playing these scores. The vocalists interpret the libretto in any way they desire. The only instruction is that the words must not be intelligible to the audience. The intention is that the emotion and plot of the work are still conveyed to the audience despite this.

A queer, occult retelling of the myth of Orpheus & Eurydice. The opera explores gender and identity, Buddhist and ritual magick.
