The musical adaptation of Seth's George Sprott, captured on vinyl
and packaged by the cartoonist himself! Something strange happens
when you pass your work along to another artist for interpretation.
It goes away a relative and comes back a stranger. Lines of
dialogue I had written in my graphic novel, now spoken or sung by
actors, were odd and moving. I could suddenly recognize from what
wellspring of emotion they had originated in me. A truly moving
experience." --Seth Seth's acclaimed graphic novel George Sprott
has now inspired a modern opera by the artistic director and
musician Mark Haney. Captured on a classic vinyl record with a
sumptuous, over-the-top design by Seth, Omnis Temporalis: A Visual
Long-Playing Record is part chamber music, part song cycle, and
part audio drama. Haney's unique project builds on Seth's original
picture novella while standing alone as a musical triumph. Omnis
Temporalis remixes elements of Seth's George Sprott to bring the
main character and several other residents of Dominion to life,
telling a story of time, memory, loss, and the ties that bind.
Featuring acclaimed TV and voice actor Richard Newman as George and
soprano Dory Hayley as Daisy, the cast also includes many of
Canada's best-known stage and TV actors. The trio of alto flute,
cello, and double bass create a musical palette on which the
dialogue and songs float in an ethereal, atmospheric narrative that
traces parts of George's life as we accompany him through the last
day of his life.
