Guess it was inevitable for the classical opera world to cross paths with modern social networking.
The Royal Opera House in London will use tweets submitted by Twitter users to compose a new opera about a man kidnapped by a group of birds. The opera will be performed later in September with music by composer Helen Porter.
This creative project is ROH’s attempt to make people become a part of the creative process in creating an opera. People can send submissions for the opera to ROH’s Twitter account.
What an interesting way to create an opera from crowdsourcing. Hope it’s better than having a bunch of monkeys pounding on keyboards. ;-P
