for soloists, SATB, children's chorus and orchestra with Chinese
flute and erhu This opera in four acts is based on an ancient
Chinese myth about a snake-shaped spirit that attains human form to
experience love. The English libretto by Cerise Lim Jacobs
sensitively adapts the story for modern audiences, and Zhou Long's
music uses both Western and Chinese sounds to create a pioneering
cross-cultural opera. Long was awarded the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for
Music for Madame White Snake, and the Pulitzer jury described the
work as 'a deeply expressive opera that draws on a Chinese folk
tale to blend the musical traditions of the East and the West.'
Madame White Snake was first staged by Opera Boston on 26 February
2010 at the Culter Majestic Theatre, Boston, USA, and received its
first Chinese staging at the Beijing International Festival on 10
October 2010, Beijing, China.
