Together with luminary soprano Deborah Kayser, Rubiks Collective present the Australian premiere of the whisper opera, David Lang’s intimate love letter to live performance. Join them for a delicate and deeply moving listening experience in Primrose Potter Salon, a space which befits the compositions intimacy.

‘What if a piece were so quiet and so intimate and so personal to the performers that you needed to be right next to them or you would hear almost nothing? A piece like this would have to be experienced live… it can never be recorded, or filmed, or amplified. The only way this piece can be received is if you are there, listening very, very closely.’ – David Lang, composer

6pm & 8:30pm, Friday 1 April 2022

the whisper opera is proudly supported by the City of Melbourne Arts Grants, Regional Arts Victoria and the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria.
