OPERA LIKE YOU'VE NEVER HEARD IT...
Beginning
the opera
Listen to the Midi
music: Katya Pine libretto: Germaine Shames
In the near future, in a world where people are divided into "essentials" and "non-essentials," and their lives governed
by a faceless virtual regime, two would-be lovers meet — only to be forced into lockdown by an invisible scourge.
In the vein of Orwell's 1984, "Beginning" is a story of attraction amid isolation, of freedom in captivity, and ultimately of resilience.
