And while London burns


Fire, flood, love and turmoil.
Thriller, opera and guided talk.

An opera, downloadable from the website, that takes the listener, with her/his mp3 player (you can also borrow one from the PLATFORM, the arts organization who produced this project), on a walking audio adventure through the streets of the Square Mile - the most powerful financial district on earth but also the centre of Britain "carbon web". 70 minutes. An interactive opera: "part love story, part hard hitting polemic, part walking tour".

The composer - Isa Suarez, is said to evoke London past, present and future through the eyes of a financial worker.
"It's like being a character on a film". A requiem for the warming world.

No need to say more, will try on sunday.
