Summary

Baldur Brönnimann conducts the English National Opera at the London Coliseum for the performance of Angel’s Bone, a work examining themes of human trafficking and modern slavery.

Why it's fantastic

This gritty production turns a Pulitzer Prize-winning score into a powerful meditation on modern slavery through the lens of fallen angels. At just seventy-five minutes long, it offers a visceral, compact experience for anyone who prefers their opera to tackle urgent contemporary issues rather than traditional fairy tales.
