Opera

In my 20s I wrote five operas! I find it hard to believe now. None of them are very traditional. One is a film opera, one a concept album/opera, one a mini opera for children to learn and perform in a day and not forgetting the promenade opera which took place in a luxery five star hotel. Opera was what got me into collaborating and song writing. I’ve got a gallery of photos from the various operas below.

“The highlight was Emily Hall’s Nightingale and the Rose, a folk-pop-infused meditation on Wilde’s fairy tale.[...]Wow”
— Evening Standard (2010)
“a dynamic new opera worth everyone’s time and hopes ”
— The Times (Sante 2007)
