Description:
After a period of intense work and isolation for Benjamin, his much-awaited new opera, Written on Skin, was premiered at the Aix-en-Provence Festival on 7 July 2012. A long standing ovation was the first of many marks of recognition and praise for this extraordinary work which has been hailed by critics as '[one of] the best operas of the 21st century so far,' 'the birth of a masterpiece. ' An opera tour will be conducted throughout Europe during 2013.
