Summary

Baldur Brönnimann conducts English National Opera’s production of Du Yun’s Angel’s Bone at the London Coliseum, featuring soloists Allison Cook, Rodney Earl Clarke, and Mariam Wallentin.

Why it's fantastic

This modern allegory explores the dark side of human nature through a gritty, genre-blurring score that fuses punk, electronics, and choral music. Clocking in at just over an hour, it offers a compact but visceral entry point for anyone curious about how opera can tackle contemporary social themes today.
