Advance details have been released of Michel van der Aa’s new opera Sunken Garden. Composed with the novelist David Mitchell (Cloud Atlas, The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet), the opera is for three singers, chamber ensemble and electronics, and will make use of 2D and 3D film. An “occult-mystery” story, it explores truth and hoax through its protagonists’ dreams of a heaven-like walled garden between life and death.

More details and the opera’s official announcement will come at the end of April.
