The London Barbican Centre made a mini-site for the 15 May After Life performance. Book your ticket, view behind-the-scene footage, and watch the opera trailer.

Submit your one memory which you would take with you into the After Life, and a lucky few will be illustrated by Augustine Cole.

about

Michel van der Aa (Netherlands, 1970) is one of Europe’s most sought-after composers today.
 For Van der Aa, music is more than organized sound or a structuring of notes. His music has expressive power, combining sounds and scenic images in a play of changing perspectives. Van der Aa’s recent stage works show a successful involvement as a film and stage director as well as composer.
