I’m so over Zoom… a personal best in the parkrun… cinnamon buns… two metre distance… Not my words, but a demonstration of how opera can mirror the zeitgeist as readily, and sharply, as any art form. Each of these random phrases is from Irish National Opera’s 20 Shots of Opera: short new filmed works by different composers (10 men, 10 women) for one or two singers and musicians from the RTÉ Concert Orchestra.
Whether it’s Gerald Barry’s crazed music for tenor and tuba, setting a letter by Beethoven about his laundry, or Hannah Peel’s duetting strangers on the nightmare of dating in a pandemic, these works are as vigorous as anything offered by lockdown. Each piece lasts around six minutes, conceived in an array of styles.
