Yayoi Uno Everett focuses on four operas that helped shape the
careers of the composers Osvaldo Golijov, Kaija Saariaho, John
Adams, and Tan Dun, which represent a unique encounter of music and
production through what Everett calls "multimodal narrative."
Aspects of production design, the mechanics of stagecraft, and
their interaction with music and sung texts contribute
significantly to the semiotics of operatic storytelling. Everett's
study draws on Northrop Frye's theories of myth, Lacanian
psychoanalysis via Slavoj Zizek, Linda and Michael Hutcheon's
notion of production, and musical semiotics found in Robert
Hatten's concept of troping in order to provide original
interpretive models for conceptualizing new operatic narratives.
