Tickets $25
A dramatic song cycle composed by Matthew Ricketts, with libretto by Mark Campbell, starring tenor Karim Sulayman. Unruly Sun is inspired by the life of filmmaker and queer activist Derek Jarman and his popular memoir, Modern Nature. Across 18 songs, the work celebrates Jarman as an artist and a person living with AIDS – and his efforts to create a garden at Prospect Cottage, a fisherman’s cabin on the unforgiving southern coast of England. This world premiere project is a co-commission with BrottOpera, 21C Music Festival and L’Orchestre classique de Montréal.”–Brott Music.
