🎬 Song from the Uproar: The Lives and Deaths of Isabelle Eberhardt

About

Song from the Uproar: The Lives and Deaths of Isabelle Eberhardt is an opera by American composer Missy Mazzoli, drawn from the diaries and writings of Swiss-born adventurer and author Isabelle Eberhardt (1877-1904). It traces Eberhardt's journey into the deserts of North Africa, where she lived as a nomad, often dressed as a man. Mazzoli's score weaves together repetitive structures and modern harmonic language with intense emotional depth.
