Our new Opera "Super Angels" had its World Premiere
The Opera "Super Angels", composed by SHIBUYA Keiichiro, has just had its world premiere (21 August). This is a ground-breaking opera looking at the interaction between humans and an android, using a mixture of opera singers, ballet dancers and orchestra together with an exciting video design, inviting the audience into a world of coexistence with technology.
One of the main characters, Golem3, is performed by Alter3, an android who recently rose to fame due to its vocal and conducting abilities. The Children's Chorus also plays a key role in this opera. We welcome the "White Hands Chorus NIPPON", an inclusive group comprised of hearing-impaired and visually-impaired children. Together with the Setagaya Junior Chorus, they make a sizeable total of 60 children!
There will be one more performance on 22 August and this production will be streamed with English subtitles later this year.
