Last summer Graham Vick’s Birmingham Opera
Company transformed a disused factory in
Digbeth, Birmingham, into the fantastical
world of Karlheinz Stockhausen’s epic opera
Mittwoch aus ‘Licht’ with two bactrian camels,
four helicopters and a wash of yellow light.
Tonight Ex Cathedra and Jeffrey Skidmore revisit
the Babel tower of the opera’s most dazzling
section, Welt-Parlament (‘World Parliament’):
a multilingual a cappella tour de force of extended
vocal techniques. Written 30 years earlier, Gesang
der Jünglinge has been hailed as Stockhausen’s first
electronic masterpiece, a mind-popping sonic
translation of the biblical story of Shadrach, Meshach
and Abednego.Tickets £12 - £16.
