  • Desire WORLD PREMIERE
    Desire WORLD PREMIERE MUSIC BY Hannah Lash LIBRETTO BY Hannah Lash, with Cori Ellison Commissioned by Miller Theatre at Columbia University © 2018 Schott Helicon Music Corporation Wednesday, October 16, 8 p.m. | Thursday, October 17, 8 p.m. Click on a section to learn more OVERVIEW SYNOPSIS NOTES CREATIVE TEAM CAST OVERVIEW Desire Wednesday, October 16, 8 p.m. | Thursday, October 17, 8 p.m The performance runs approximately 65 minutes with no intermission. A flowering garden sets the scene for the world premiere of award-winning composer Hannah Lash’s newest chamber opera. Written for a cast of three singers and string quartet, Desire grapples with the human, personal struggle of trusting oneself in the midst of doubt. The score paints a lush sonic landscape, performed by the adventurous JACK Quartet, and transports audiences to this metaphoric garden of creativity. Major support for Desire is provided by Francis Goelet Charitable Lead Trusts. Additional support is provided by the Howard Gilman Foundation. Desire SYNOPSIS Present day. Set in a bedroom without definitive boundaries. A man and a woman lie in bed. The man sleeps, while she lies awake. The woman quietly climbs out of bed slowly, careful not to wake the man. The woman moves to the outer parts of the bedroom where it is dark. A warm, cavernous environment emerges. She calls out and is surprised to hear an echo. She continues to call out, the echo responds. Is it another person? She discovers curiosities around her and wonders if they may be hiding other secrets. She then discovers a figure who seems to belong to this mysterious space.
