The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs saw its Canadian premiere by Calgary Opera last week, conducted by Michael Christie, and was deemed a “must-see” event by The Calgary Herald.
“[A] splendid libretto by Mark Campbell and an imaginative musical score by Mason Bates. Filled with unusual effects, big choral numbers, powerful solo monologues, and ear-catching orchestration, this is an opera that captures attention from the outset and never loses focus or flags.”
“Here the brilliance of the production, and manner of how the show is put on, carried all before it, producing an immediate standing ovation at the end.”
“For those apprehensive about the very idea of modern opera, there is nothing to fear here. Everyone will be swept up in the dynamism and power of this production, and the music falls gracefully upon the ears. It is the “must-see” event in Calgary at the moment.”
