Michael Barnes of Austin American-Statesman writes a glowing review of The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs which gave its Texas premiere at Austin Opera last weekend.
Barnes writes:
“Those whom I buttonholed in the lobby expressed, like me, affirmative responses to Mason Bates’ and Mark Campbell’s impeccable 100-minute opera, given its Texas premiere by Austin Opera, as sleek, smart and sublime as an Apple device.”
“Also crucial to the opera’s success was Bates’ pulsating, propulsive music, combined with a bit of jazz and a fully romantic payoff.”
