Green Opera

A scene from Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot. Pozzo ruminates on the suffering of mankind and concludes that “the tears of the world are of a constant quantity. For each one who begins to weep, another stops”.

12 composers respond to the theme of 'isolation' in Green Opera's first contemporary opera project, Isolated Incidents. The project was rehearsed and recorded entirely in lockdown.
