Nightingale And The Tower
NIGHTINGALE AND THE TOWER is an electronic Chamber Opera created for six professional adult singers from the Opera world, twenty Youth Company members, ages 7-18, orchestra, synthesizers and earth harp. Combining elements of digital and acoustic sounds, this pioneering new work from groundbreaking classical composer, Jason Treuting and Grammy Award Winning folk-rock musician, Mikael Jorgensen, melds the elements of a rich neo-classical score, alongside electronic and synthesized textures to create a bold, multi-disciplinary work of art never before seen.
THIS IS A STORY ABOUT the delicate balance children must tread between technology and the environment, in a dystopian world that no longer seeks value in nature or it’s wild and beautiful imperfections. It is a world premiere.
