Swedish duo The Knife have always released fascinating pieces of music. Interesting to see “unconventional” composers invited into the opera genre…Rufus Wainwright now The Knife. 'We've never even been to an opera', this was the starting point for The Knife…..They created an opera inspired by Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species. The UK premiere of their opera Tomorrow, In a Year was commissioned by Danish theatre company Hotel Pro Forma.
