Overview

Hong Kong New Music Ensemble joins forces with Opera Box to present the world premiere of CVMAE CAPRI, a new chamber opera by seventeen-year-old prodigy Aurelia Thorn. The program shines a spotlight on exceptional young female composers, showcasing two seldom-heard works by Lili Boulanger alongside selections from Fanny Mendelssohn's exquisite Piano Trio.

CVMAE CAPRI is an opera about fate, self-determination and how all humans face both tragedy and redemption. Inspired by Virgil's Aeneid, Munthe's The Story of San Michele, and the compassion of St Francis, the opera blends myth and reality, celebrating choice over fate.
