Details

A thrilling collaboration between Steve Reich and video artist Beryl Korot, The Cave explores Judaism and Islam through the biblical story of Abraham and Sarah. Created in 1993, The Cave remains an exciting glimpse into the future of opera - an epic three act, five screen, 18 musician production demonstrating entirely new possibilities for music theatre. With the innovative use of multi-media, The Cave captures the melodic qualities of the human voice to form a richly woven fabric of sound and image and a radical alternative to traditional opera.
