BlinkOpera: The Music of The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs
Season 2, Episode 26, Apr 26, 2022, 02:03 PM
The music of The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs is a fast-paced score of acoustic resonance and electronic sampling, featuring instruments not normally found in the opera pit like saxophone and guitar. How do all of these unorthodox elements blend to create a GRAMMY-winning musical experience? Listen in as conductor Michael Christie guides you through this riveting opera by composer Mason Bates and librettist Mark Campbell in this week's BlinkOpera!
