An Opera by Philip Glass
Libretto by David Henry Hwang

Produced in association with American Repertory Theatre
Sensual, deeply psychological and erotic, composer Philip Glass (Oscar nominated for The Hours) adds Asian and Western instrumentation to stories adapted by Tony Award-winning playwright David Henry Hwang (M. Butterfly, Flower Drum Song). Powerful and stirring, The Sound of a Voice exposes the dreams and fantasies of a Japanese writer and an aging warrior in a fairy-tale like duel of love and death.
A world-premiere opera produced in association with American Repertory Theatre.
