Edinburgh Festival unveils MacRae opera
24th March 2006
Although not yet thirty, MacRae already has a strong association with the Edinburgh Festival. In 2001 James MacMillan conducted a retrospective of his work, whilst the 2002 festival featured memorable performances of Sleep at the Feet of Daphne and the Violin Concerto.
Co-commissioned by Edinburgh International Festival and the Royal Opera House in a co-production with Scottish Opera, The Assassin Tree will be performed at the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh on August 25 – 27. Further performances will follow at the Linbury Studio of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden in early September.
