Seven angels have fallen through space and time for so long, they
have forgotten why. Coming to rest on a desert landscape, they
imagine the creation of a legendary garden that once flourished
there and its destruction from greed and neglect. Inspired by
Paradise Lost, Seven Angels interprets the themes of John Milton's
masterpiece for a modern audience facing up to the urgent
challenges of a changing climate and ever-depleting resources. This
is the long-awaited first opera from Luke Bedford featuring the
libretto of award-winning poet Glyn Maxwell.Words and music come
together. like two swans elegantly floating in the river's current.
beautiful words with extraordinary creative and artistic direction
- Paul Guest, Ceasefire.
