Composers, Inc. proudly announces the world premiere of a major new chamber opera by composer Allen Shearer and librettist Claudia Stevens. This stirring yet often lighthearted opera brings George Eliot's great romantic novel Middlemarch to the operatic stage for the first time, with compelling music and powerful imagery.
The idealistic Dorothea Brooke naively marries a scholar for his "great mind" and is devastated when he turns out to be cold, shallow and not very bright. But in spring, anything can happen. Could she have a second chance at happiness with a dashing yet unsuitable suitor? The odds are stacked against her.
