Ecstasy of the Virtues
Stone Nest, W1D 5EZ , [Venue Details]Step into a richly sensuous world inspired by the life, music and visions of 12th-century nun, mystic and polymath Hildegard von Bingen.
Blending singing, live instruments, electronic sounds, dance, light, water, scent and taste, this very modern opera creates a secular devotional space, in which audience and performers embark on a shared pilgrimage of self-love and transformation.
Award-winning composer, director and librettist Nwando Ebizie reimagines Hildegard’s 1151 mystery play Ordo Virtutum through her lens as a neurodivergent Afrofabulist, drawing on influences as diverse as West African and Caribbean ceremonial music, medieval mystery plays, Downtown New York minimalism and Toni Morrison’s Beloved to create a total artwork where every element serves a transportive, multisensory experience.
