Dan Schlosberg: Reimagining The Handmaid's Tale

  • Summary

  • Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity is presenting a reimagined take on Poul Ruders's The Handmaid's Tale, a work-in-progress based on Margaret Atwood’s sobering novel. Composer Dan Scholsberg was commissioned to arrange the work for chamber ensemble using different technologies to evoke Gilead. The hope is for this arrangement to be used by more arts companies across the globe.

    Opera at Banff Centre will continue to thrust forward, while acknowledging and building on the foundations of the past.

    Guest host for this episode is Stephania Romaniuk, who is being mentored in the Arts Writer portion of Banff Centre's Opera and Chamber Music: Interplay program by Elizabeth Bowman.

    All episodes of The Opera Glasses podcast are hosted by the editor of Opera Canada, currently Michael Jones after Elizabeth Bowman hosted seasons 1 and 2. Follow Opera Canada on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Visit OperaCanada.ca for all of your Canadian Opera news and reviews.
